Last year, Storyboard18 got in touch with Srinivasan K Swamy, executive chairman, RK Swamy Hansa Group who touched upon the disruptions in the advertising industry. “For example, some say that AI is going to transform advertising. But it is another tool that can be made use of by the industry. The tool by itself will not transform. How you use the tool will transform the industry,” he said.
He added, “Digital advertising came about a few years ago. It was thought of as some big change. But at the end of the day, it is just another medium, like television and print, but more interactive, which the industry leveraged. So, things have changed, and the industry is ready to embrace the change and actually move with it.”
