Using AI to Maximize Your Social Media with Robin Fay

May 22 @ 10:00 am 12:00 pm CDT

What’s all of the buzz about AI? Can it actually help us in our social media work? Should we use AI at all? Spoiler alert: If you use social media, you have been engaging with AI for a while!

In this session, we will briefly discuss how major social media companies are already using AI (X, Facebook, Youtube, and more) and what they have already built in to help us such as Facebook’s content recommendations for creators and scheduling, Youtube’s transcription, Canva’s robust tools for creating social media content, and more.

We’ll then dive into how we can use AI to help us in our social media efforts. We’ll explore using image and textual content AI creators (it’s more than just ChatGPT!). Along the way, we’ll discuss what it can do, what it can’t (at least, not successfully), and how best to leverage its ability to help us in our work.

This session should give you some GREAT ideas about how to use AI successfully in your social media efforts. You’ll be glad to have added AI to your social media toolbox!
