Will AI Steal Your Social Media Job?
AI technology can do things like change the background of images and videos at the click of a button, generate awesome social media captions, and streamline social media decision-making.
But while AI is getting better all the time, it still needs a human in control to ensure accuracy and that human touch that’s key to success on social media.
Here’s why AI won’t steal your job.
Accuracy: AI tools like Open AI’s Chat GPT 4 are being updated all the time, but it’s crucial that any AI output is still verified by a human.
This is even more crucial if you’re producing content for a very niche topic or industry. For instance, if you’re writing on subjects that are very niche; such as traffic legislation in a very specific part of the world, AI tools are likely to have very limited knowledge. In these scenarios, AI tools will often create plausible looking outputs, but it’s important to fact check and verify the results as part of your workflow, risks exist if you aren’t careful.
Context and Nuance: Successful social media managers understand that content creation means connecting on an emotional level with people. Most AI tools function by pulling information from various sources and stitching them together cohesively. But this often means that subtle nuances, flow, and even the true meaning of the original content gets lost. The end result? Generic-sounding content that lacks flow and cohesion.
For example, you might be creating localised content targeted towards an audience in a small British town, but care needs to be taken to match tone and tap into the nuances that help you to connect with your audience and build trust, which is crucial for small businesses today.
The bottom line is that while AI tools can be extremely useful in the hands of social media managers there is no single tool that can replace the job of a social media marketing professional in its entirety, especially one who needs to do a range of tasks from paid social to content production, community management, influencer marketing, and more – while ensuring that all these elements work together cohesively.
Most importantly, your audience is searching for real human connection - and there’s only one way to ensure people get that - by keeping a human in the loop, even if augmented by AI tools.
In the hands of a social media manager who understands these limitations, AI tools can be immensely helpful for brands and marketers. Here’s some of the ways social media managers are turbocharging their results with AI:
Why Use AI For Social Media Management?
Despite their limitations, AI tools can be a powerful mechanism for marketers, offering new information, inspiration, and automation capabilities. They can be used to challenge your thinking, brainstorm and enhance your ideas, and boost your dynamism within the workplace.
The right AI tools can help you unlock new insights about your competitors and audience, and allow you to streamline your SMM processes. All up, this can leave you with more time to focus on what matters and connect with your audience on a deeper level.
These tools will only get better over time, so it will definitely pay to stay on track with all the exciting developments with AI in the social media marketing space.
