#832: Akeneo CEO Romain Fouache on building and maintaining trust while scaling up AI adoption

Today, we’re going to talk about the delicate balance brands must strike in the age of AI. It’s not just about implementing the latest generative AI tools into the shopping experience; it’s about doing so in a way that builds, rather than erodes, the customer trust and loyalty you’ve worked so hard to create. To help me discuss this topic, I’d like to welcome, Romain Fouache, CEO at Akeneo.


From the creators of The Agile Brand with Greg Kihlström® podcast, and the internationally best-selling The Agile Brand Guide® series of books on marketing technology topics, we're here to give marketers information and insights to make better decisions.
