Content creation, media relations and planning were cited as the top three skills in public relations by practitioners in the CIPR State of the Profession survey for 2017. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is already making significant inroads to each of these areas. It is enabling practitioners to work smarter and more efficiently. It is enabling us to deliver more for less, and in time is likely to have a significant implication on labour. It's a situation that is repeated in other profession services such as accountancy and legal.
