In this episode, I dive deep into the future of advertising and tackle a burning question in the world of retail media: Will Amazon follow Meta’s path into fully autonomous, AI-driven “black box” advertising? With Meta and Google making bold moves toward automation that minimizes advertiser control, I unpack how Amazon is responding—and whether it’s headed down the same road.
We explore what Mark Zuckerberg’s “no creative, no targeting, no measurement” vision really means, how Google’s Performance Max campaigns are evolving, and what makes Amazon’s approach stand out. You’ll hear insights from industry experts and consultants who weigh in on whether Amazon’s transparency and control will hold up in an AI-dominated future. Whether you’re a brand leader, agency strategist, or retail media nerd, this one’s for you.
