🚨 NEW: Corporate Communications Leaders Embrace AI Despite Misinformation and Corporate Reputation Concerns: The 4th Annual Ragan Communications and PR Daily and HarrisX - a Stagwell Inc. company Study reveals insights from 437 CEOs and comms leaders on how communications is evolving to meet the challenges of AI, corporate activism, and brand safety head-on. Here are some highlights: AI Adoption: 4 in 5 communications leaders view AI favorably, with 71% seeing its positive impact on processes like writing, brainstorming, and editing. However, concerns about AI-driven misinformation and its effects on corporate reputation are significant. Trust Shifts: Chief Communications Officers are now the most trusted to manage corporate narratives, while trust in CEOs leading DE&I communications has dipped. DE&I and ESG: These remain critical, though DE&I has seen a slight decline in priority compared to previous years. Brand Safety: A split exists—58% of CEOs feel it’s overapplied, while non-CEO leaders lean the opposite way. As Dritan Nesho, CEO of HarrisX, notes: “Corporate leaders are facing fast-changing technology, social, and business norms all at once, requiring them to be prepared ahead of when crises and opportunities land.” Diane Schwartz, CEO of Ragan Communications, adds: “It’s an exciting time to be a communicator and a critical inflection point for communications to lead the way as guardians of reputation.” Curious to learn more?

🚨 Media Spotlight: Big thanks to Variety VIP+ & Audrey Schomer for highlighting groundbreaking HarrisX - a Stagwell Inc. company / HumanX data on AI adoption: 🎥 U.S. entertainment and media decision-makers are leading the charge in adopting generative AI compared to other industries. However, there’s a twist: 💡 Despite high implementation rates, familiarity and internal use of LLMs and GPTs lag behind. Is this due to confusion around the technology or a preference for ready-made tools? ⚠️ Entertainment leaders are also more likely to face hurdles like internal culture resistance and change management challenges, which may slow broader adoption. As AI continues to transform the industry, overcoming these barriers will be key to unlocking its full potential.
