Use it as a tool while the ad industry gets worse and worse and creative talent goes to other industries and/or finds ways to be their own business.

There is value and benefits to ai but overall brands and ad agencies are so shortsighted that a generation of young creative minds will start looking elsewhere for a career now that advertising is becoming a more stressful and less glamorous job.

Does anyone else just not even want to be a people manager anymore?! The amount of work this is taking, I’m just so over it.

I have tried countless times to explain this but I end up burnt out, everyone suffers including me. I just left one role bc of it and now this new role, same thing. I’m over it.
