Virtual Conference: Unlock the Power of AI in Marketing

10:00 am - 10:30 am

The AI Marketing Stack: Where Ethics, Trust, and Performance Meet

AI’s no longer just another tool in the marketer’s toolkit, it runs through every layer of modern marketing, from strategy and creative to media, personalization, customer experience, and measurement. With that integration comes a new set of decisions about data, bias, transparency, automation, accountability, and consumer trust which is often embedded in everyday marketing choices rather than any obvious “ethical” moments.

In this keynote, Nicole Alexander explores where those risks live across the AI marketing stack and why ethical AI needs to become an operating discipline rather than a separate policy or compliance exercise. Through real-world examples and a practical framework, she’ll show marketers how to identify their most consequential risks, ask better questions of AI systems and partners, and build trust into AI deployment and measurement.

Attendees leave with a clearer understanding of how to pursue the speed, creativity, personalization, and performance AI can unlock, while making smarter decisions about where human judgment, transparency, and accountability still matter most.

From Search to Influence: A Marketer’s Guide to GEO and AEO

AI is rewriting how consumers discover, evaluate and choose brands. As search shifts from ranked links to generated answers and agent-led journeys, marketers must optimize not only for clicks, but for visibility, trust and citation. This session will demystify AEO and GEO and provide a practical framework for making content AI-readable, strengthening authority signals and measuring performance across emerging AI-driven experiences. Attendees will leave with clear actions to improve discoverability and prepare their brands for the next generation of customer journeys.

The Unfiltered AI Panel: What's Working, What's Dead, What's Next

AI has moved from experimentation to expectation, but what’s actually delivering?
In this candid, panel-style conversation, marketing leaders will cut through the AI hype to share what’s really happening behind the scenes: where AI is driving measurable revenue and efficiency, what investments are replacing traditional martech and talent, and which experiments have already fallen flat.

From creativity and brand differentiation to customer trust, and the evolving skills marketers need to succeed, this conversation goes beyond the usual predictions. Expect honest takes, lessons learned, strong opinions, and practical examples of what’s working… and what’s not.

Your Next AI Advantage Isn’t AI

Why the teams pulling ahead aren’t using better tools. They’re changing how marketing works.

You’re already using AI. So is everyone else. The advantage now isn’t access. It’s what you change because AI exists.

Truth Collective didn’t just add AI to our workflows. We rebuilt how we think, work, create and collaborate. And now we help marketing leaders do the same.

What surprised us most? The better AI gets, the more important human co-creation becomes. Judgment, taste, imagination and ambition aren’t the final approval layer. They’re what can turn AI speed into better work. Fast.

The magic isn’t Human or AI. It’s what becomes possible when they think, challenge and create together.

In this candid session, we’ll challenge the misperception that AI advantage comes from more tools or faster output. We’ll share practical lessons for building better workflows, stronger alignment and a Human × AI operating model that turns AI from something your marketing team uses into a brand and business advantage you can feel.
