Free training argues human connection, not more content, is the edge in the AI era

AI has made producing content faster, cheaper and more automated than ever, and content itself has become a commodity. A widely discussed report on AI slop across LinkedIn suggests features for flagging synthetic material are coming to every major social platform.

The consequence, marketing educators argue, is less human connection and considerably less trust. The businesses and brands winning today, they say, are not the ones publishing the most content but the ones staying the most human.

That argument is the subject of a free live online training held on Thursday, August 13, 2026 at 12pm PDT, 3pm EDT and 7pm UTC, titled around standing out on Facebook and Instagram in the AI era.

The session covered what the Facebook and Instagram algorithms currently reward, the most common mistakes companies make with AI marketing and how to avoid them, why simply producing more content is not the answer, and how to build genuine trust and connection in an AI-driven environment.

Organizers said everyone who registered would receive a replay, transcript and summary, including people who could not attend live.
