AI isn’t just changing marketing — it’s rewriting the rules of how teams create, plan, and grow. In this episode of Vision Voices, host Lara talks with Lillian Pierson, P.E., a Fractional CMO and AI Marketing Instructor at LinkedIn Learning, about what happens when businesses start replacing human workflows with AI systems.

In this episode we explore:
• How AI is transforming marketing strategy, content, and automation
• What to automate — and what should stay human
• The hidden risks of AI-generated “slop content”
• Building AI workflows that scale creativity, not kill it
• Why understanding AI tools now defines tomorrow’s marketers

Whether you’re a founder, CMO, or digital strategist, this conversation breaks down how to integrate AI into real business processes — and what “AI replacing marketing” actually looks like behind the buzzwords.

🎧 Tune in to learn how to use AI as a growth system, not just a shortcut.

Dubai and Abu Dhabi’s job market is evolving fast.

In this Vision Voices episode, former big-tech HR executive David van Lochem explains how AI and the augmented workforce are reshaping careers in the Gulf.

We unpack what universities should really teach in an AI master’s (leaders with transformation skills, not just coders), the rise of DIY AI ($20 tools, agentic workflows), and why human + AI beats human vs AI.

You’ll learn practical plays for SMBs and enterprises: where to start with AI in HR/talent acquisition (ATS, structured interviews, bias risks), how to build T-shaped skills with two verticals, and why network + personal brand matter more than ever in the UAE.

We also get real about robo-bosses, where human empathy still wins, and why graduates should combine work + study and learn by doing.

If you’re job-hunting, hiring, or upskilling in the Gulf, this is your field guide to an augmented career.🔔
