Chris Camacho, CEO Cheil UK, chats to Fortune about how he's using ChatGPT and the impact it's having on business

Chris Camacho, CEO Cheil UK:

"Whilst ChatGPT certainly won’t be replacing anyone at Cheil, our teams have begun to integrate the tool in a variety of ways – new business are using it to conduct research, data are generating reports, strategy are creating useful KPI metrics and developers are even generating code. The tool is helping us automate repetitive activities, improving customer service and saving us from countless hours trawling through Google search results, freeing up time and brainpower which can be refocused on more complex tasks."

Furthermore, in a world of fake news, we must be cautious and ask “is this source reliable and is this information true?” – if not, this could lead to the rise of misinformation spreading like wildfire.
