A marketing org can have dozens, even hundreds, of AI initiatives running with no single way to see all of them.
What does Jay Combs say on The Agile Brand podcast?
Jay Combs, VP of Marketing, ModelOp, says: Jay Combs, VP of Marketing at ModelOp, argues that marketing organizations massively undercount AI initiatives because many models are embedded in existing platforms and go live without review. He recommends tying every AI effort to a clear business use case, running governance continuously through the AI lifecycle, building a system of record, and tracking token-driven costs so teams measure outcomes (revenue, conversion, retention) rather than activity.
