AI has rewritten the European marketing stack faster than most teams planned for, from media buying to how customers even find your brand. If you are a marketing director, growth lead, CMO or founder running acquisition for a European SME, you are now trading off brand safety against scale on AI-optimised ad platforms, watching long-trusted attribution models collapse as signals disappear, and preparing for search journeys reshaped by AI-generated results and assistants that sit between you and the customer.
The AI in Marketing section tracks how AI is actually changing practice: smarter bidding and creative rotation in paid media, new approaches to attribution modelling, content production at scale without losing voice, personalisation that respects European privacy norms, the realities of brand safety in automated environments and the shifting unit economics of customer acquisition.
We report from company earnings calls, ad platform disclosures, agency briefings and our own research with European operators to separate durable shifts from hype, so when another AI product pitch lands in your inbox you can see clearly which changes are structural and which are just noise.
