But what are the risks with this level of automation?\n<h2>The downfalls of AI<\/h2>\nAI is only as smart as the inputs it\u2019s given. Think of it as <a href=\"https:\/\/insights.incubeta.com\/knowledge\/the-risks-rewards-best-practices-of-generative-ai\"><strong>a \u2018quality in, quality out\u2019 approach<\/strong><\/a>. While it\u2019s a fundamental part of advertising; <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hubs.la\/Q036mVjz0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AI usage is only beneficial to a business if understood and harnessed effectively<\/a><\/strong>.\n\nWithout proper guardrails in place, brands can find themselves delivering content that technically performs but feels off-brand or inconsistent. From tone of voice to visual identity, the core essence that makes a brand recognizable can start to slip through the cracks. Not to mention the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/incubeta.com\/news-and-resources\/incubeta-to-launch-outperform-pmax-an-ai-solution-that-puts-brands-in-charge\/\">loss of control that AI integration normally yields<\/a>.<\/strong>\n\nWe\u2019ve seen it first-hand. Brands pushing out personalized messages that resonate with the audience on paper, but don\u2019t quite sound like them. And when that happens at scale, it can confuse consumers and erode their trust.\n\nFor CMOs, this presents a complex challenge: how do you harness the efficiency and performance of AI, without compromising the integrity of your brand? All <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/incubeta.com\/news-and-resources\/incubeta-to-launch-outperform-pmax-an-ai-solution-that-puts-brands-in-charge\/\">whilst retaining performance transparency and control<\/a>.<\/strong>\n<h2>How to outperform with AI<\/h2>\nThe solution, and the key to outperform with AI is; intelligent integration, clear guidelines and smart personalization. The answer lies in intentionality &#8211; AI should serve your brand, not shape it.\n\nThis is how Italian hotel chain <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/incubeta.com\/our-work\/boosting-cross-market-brand-performance-for-gruppo-una\/\">Gruppo UNA delivered a 269% increase in ROAS across their core market<\/a><\/strong>. By truly understanding what AI meant for their brand, they established clear guidelines and built a consistent narrative across their brand &#8211; delivering acute personalization and an improved user experience.\n\nThe key is to start with a clear framework. Brand guidelines, tone of voice documentation, approved creative components, all this needs to be part of your AI&#8217;s training set. AI is a powerful enabler, but it needs a strong creative and strategic foundation to operate within.\n\nPersonalization is driven by AI, but grounded by brand identity. When these elements come together, brands are empowered to create more targeted content at scale. It\u2019s about enhancing, rather than replacing your brand voice. Driving efficiency without sacrificing creativity.\n\nYour brand doesn\u2019t need to choose between personalization and consistency. With the right setup, you can have both.\n<h2>Get personalization right<\/h2>\nPersonalization has long been the gold standard, and AI can help you get there &#8211; but you need to think about what it means for your business &#8211; and how AI can truly help centralize all personalized touchpoints with the customer.\n\nTo outperform is to understand how the situation relates to your business \u2013 and Incubeta can help you establish your positioning, optimize activity and drive business efficiency.
