Common mistakes when using AI in marketing

AI

Published · 2 min read

The short answer

The most common mistakes: publishing what the tool writes without review, trusting it for numbers, regulations, and prices that may be wrong, pasting customer data into it, producing content that sounds like everyone else's, and using images that don't match reality. AI speeds up the work, but the responsibility stays with you.

The five mistakes

  • Publishing without review: language errors and occasionally invented information.
  • Trusting numbers: statistics with no source.
  • Entering sensitive data: figures, contracts, customer details.
  • Look-alike content: the same phrases everyone uses.
  • Misleading images: a product nicer than reality.

How to avoid them

  • Make human review a mandatory step before publishing.
  • Ask for sources and verify them yourself.
  • Check the tool’s privacy policy and keep sensitive data out.
  • Add your own examples and experience to every piece.
  • Use real product photos in ads.

Frequently asked questions

Should I ban my team from using it?

Better to set clear usage rules than to ban it.

How do I know information is invented?

Ask for the source and open it yourself. If you can't find the source, don't publish the claim.
