When Machines Speak

Welcome to the coming world of AI Twins, a revolutionary concept that extends beyond the realm of industrial Digital Twins. While Digital Twins are software replicas of machines used to monitor and optimise physical systems, AI Twins aim to mirror human traits, behaviours, and decision-making processes. These advanced digital replicas leverage AI to simulate human-like interactions and provide personalised insights through conversational interfaces.

Unlike their industrial counterparts, which rely on sensor data and IoT devices to optimise machine performance, AI Twins harness behavioural data, preferences, and digital interactions to replicate human behaviour. This enables them to engage in natural conversations, offer personalised recommendations, and enhance user experiences across various domains.

As Gautam Mehra puts it, the AI Twin is built with “deterministic and observable data.” This means that the AI model is trained on concrete, measurable information rather than subjective or speculative data. This approach ensures that the AI Twin’s responses and insights are grounded in factual, verifiable information.

Deterministic data refers to information that is certain and produces consistent results when analysed. This could include recorded behaviours, documented outcomes, or measurable metrics. For instance, sales figures, customer interaction logs, or performance evaluations would be considered deterministic data. Observable data refers to information that can be directly seen, measured, or recorded. This contrasts with inferred or hypothetical data. Examples of observable data include customer purchase history, time spent on specific tasks, or quantifiable achievements.

By using deterministic and observable data, AI Twins can provide more reliable and actionable insights. This approach helps to minimise biases and reduces the risk of the AI making unfounded assumptions or predictions.

Here is an example of how Gautam built an AI Twin of a Samsung Galaxy S24 customer: “We used our 3 core reports: Behaviour, Intent & Mentions. Behaviour reports help us understand who our customers are. We do this by unpacking 1st party data (cohorts of their own customers) of our clients. However, for this interview, we use “interests” which are cohorts/groups of people on audience platforms like Meta, TikTok, Pinterest which you can understand better in our platform. We create a brief that represented people who are consuming content and interested in Samsung Galaxy S24. We used several data points from this behaviour report to create the core “character”. Things like age, gender, location, profession, topics they (collective they refer to engages with Samsung Galaxy S24 on digital media) are interested in and several other data points to feed and create this character. We also fed it with memories. This memory was derived from several thousand conversations that people have had on the social and open web (Mentions Report) about Samsung Galaxy S24, what they search for, hundreds of questions they ask and how they evaluate the competition (Intent Report).”

Note: In previous essays,  I used the phrase “Digital Twins” when I should have referred to “AI Twins.” My thanks to Gautam for highlighting the distinction between these two types of twins.

Marketing – 1

AI Twins in marketing, particularly Segment Twins, offer a unique advantage by synthesising data from various sources, including customer data platforms, marketing automation tools, and ad platforms. They analyse behavioural patterns, engagement metrics, and demographic details from major platforms like Google, Meta, and TikTok, effectively bridging the gap between martech and adtech insights. This comprehensive view of customer segments enables marketers to develop highly targeted strategies and personalised experiences.

The true game-changer lies in the conversational interface of AI Twins. Marketers can directly interact with these digital entities, asking questions, testing hypotheses, and gaining deeper insights into customer mindsets. This level of interaction facilitates a degree of customisation and personalisation previously unattainable in marketing strategies.

As I wrote in Digital Twins in Marketing: Magical Minions:Customer Twins take two primary forms: Segment Twins and Singular Twins. Segment Twins represent groups of customers with similar behaviours, preferences, and characteristics. These virtual cohorts allow marketers to simulate responses to campaigns across different customer segments, test messaging and offers on virtual groups before real-world deployment, and identify trends and patterns within specific customer cohorts. On the other hand, Singular Twins are AI-powered replicas of individual customers, enabling hyper-personalised marketing at scale – true N=1 marketing. These individual twins facilitate predictive modelling of customer journeys and real-time optimisation of interactions across all touchpoints, ensuring each customer receives a tailored experience.”

The Twins idea can be expanded further as this slide shows:

The power of AI Twins to, in the words of Jack Carr, “in real-time, analyse the past and evaluate the present to predict the future” makes them an extraordinarily powerful asset for marketing teams. This capability fundamentally transforms the way marketers approach decision-making and strategy development.

By analysing past data, AI Twins can uncover patterns and insights that might be missed by human analysts, providing a deep understanding of historical trends and campaign performances. Their real-time evaluation of present conditions allows marketers to stay agile, responding quickly to emerging trends, sudden market shifts, or changes in consumer behaviour.

Most crucially, the predictive capabilities of AI Twins offer marketers a glimpse into potential futures, enabling them to anticipate market changes, forecast campaign outcomes, and pre-emptively address challenges. This foresight allows marketing teams to be proactive rather than reactive, crafting strategies that are not just responsive to current conditions but are prepared for future scenarios.

Moreover, the conversational interface of AI Twins democratises access to these complex analytics, allowing marketers at all levels to engage with data in intuitive ways. This accessibility fosters a data-driven culture within marketing teams, where decisions are increasingly backed by robust analysis and predictive insights.

In essence, AI Twins serve as a bridge between the vast sea of data available to marketers and the actionable insights needed to drive effective strategies. They augment human creativity and intuition with data-driven precision, enabling marketing teams to craft more targeted, personalised, and effective campaigns.

Marketing – 2

I asked ChatGPT and Claude for some examples for the use of AI Twins in marketing.

Marketing Campaign Optimisation: A marketer needs to decide among multiple messages for a holiday season campaign targeting the brand’s loyal customers. She consults an AI-powered Segment Twin to rank the content and collaborates with it to refine the campaign’s messaging and timing, ensuring higher engagement and conversion rates. The Segment Twin uses deterministic data such as past campaign performance, customer feedback, and demographic information to provide its insights.

Product Launch Strategy: A Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) is planning a new product launch. Instead of relying on gut instinct or historical data alone, she consults a Segment Twin – an AI model representing her brand’s most loyal customers. Through a natural conversation, she asks the Twin to rank three potential messaging strategies. The Twin not only provides rankings but offers insights into why certain messages resonate more strongly, drawing from vast amounts of behavioural data. Together, the CMO and the Segment Twin refine the campaign’s timing and content, ensuring higher engagement and conversion rates.

Customer Retention Analysis: A marketer wants to understand why a segment of customers churned. She engages in a conversation with an AI Twin representing that group. The Twin analyses data such as churn rates, customer complaints, and usage patterns to provide detailed insights. It identifies the main pain points and suggests specific improvements to retain customers, helping the marketer develop targeted retention strategies.

Market Research and Insights: A market researcher is tasked with understanding consumer attitudes towards a new product. They interact with AI Twins representing different segments of the target market. The Twins uses data from surveys, focus groups, and social media mentions to provide comprehensive insights. These insights help the researcher identify potential barriers to adoption and opportunities for product improvement.

Personalised Content Creation: A digital marketing team is developing a content strategy for a diverse audience. They consult an AI Twin representing different customer personas. The Twin analyses data from content engagement metrics, user behaviour on the website and app, and social media interactions to suggest tailored content topics, formats, and distribution channels for each persona. This enables the team to create highly relevant and engaging content that resonates with specific audience segments, improving overall content performance and ROI.

Dynamic Pricing Optimisation: An e-commerce company wants to optimise its pricing strategy across various product lines. They utilise an AI Twin that simulates market conditions and consumer behaviour. The Twin incorporates real-time data on competitor pricing, demand fluctuations, and historical sales patterns to recommend optimal pricing strategies. It can also predict how different customer segments might respond to various pricing models, allowing the company to implement dynamic pricing that maximizes both sales volume and profit margins.

Influencer Marketing: A brand is looking to enhance its influencer marketing strategy. They employ an AI Twin that analyses data from social media platforms, engagement rates, and audience demographics of potential influencers. The Twin helps identify the most suitable influencers for the brand’s target audience and predicts the potential impact of different influencer partnerships. It can also suggest optimal content formats and posting schedules for each influencer, maximising the effectiveness of influencer collaborations.

McKinsey offers an interactive example of how combining a digital twin with generative AI brings added value to the customer journey.

From the post: “Digital twins and generative AI (gen AI) heighten each other’s impact. Gen AI enables access to digital twins for the common, nontechnical user through a conversational interface, unveiling a new realm of synthesis, analysis, and insights. Gen AI can also be leveraged to collect, transfer, and augment data input to digital twins. When large language models are integrated with digital twins, they can be fine-tuned to enable up-to-date, real-time responses and even serve as an optimizer for solving specific tasks using domain knowledge. Specific use cases for gen AI–powered customer digital twins (CDTs) include simulating and predicting what product a customer purchases next, predicting each customer’s churn propensity, analyzing customer behavior to predict future purchasing patterns, and improving customer experience across the customer journey. Together, these technologies leverage real-time data to identify and act on various scenarios, helping organizations efficiently analyze vast quantities of data.”

Two Multipliers

Two interconnected concepts, Agentic AI and Kaizen, have the potential to significantly amplify the power of AI Twins in marketing. This synergy creates a new paradigm that we can call “Kaizen Marketing,” which combines the strengths of AI and human expertise to drive continuous improvement at unprecedented speed and scale.

Agentic AI in Marketing

Agentic AI introduces the concept of multiple AI agents interacting with each other to achieve complex goals. In the context of marketing, this manifests as a Co-Marketer working in tandem with various AI Twins. These twins can include Customer Twins (both Segment and Singular), Product Twins, Store Twins, Location Twins, and others. The Co-Marketer, an AI-powered entity itself, orchestrates these twins, analysing their insights, coordinating their actions, and making strategic decisions.

For instance, the Co-Marketer might engage with Segment Twins to identify broad market trends, consult Singular Twins for personalised customer insights, interact with Product Twins to optimise product recommendations, and leverage Location Twins to refine geotargeting strategies. This multi-agent system operates at both macro and micro levels, balancing broad market strategies with individual customer experiences.

The power of this approach lies in its ability to process vast amounts of data, identify patterns, and make decisions in real-time, far surpassing human capabilities. Once trained, the Co-Marketer can take over many of the CMO’s routine tasks, allowing human marketers to focus on high-level strategy and creative direction. This dynamic interaction not only enhances the efficiency of marketing efforts but also ensures that strategies are continuously optimised based on real-time data.

Kaizen in AI Marketing

Kaizen, the Japanese philosophy of continuous improvement, can be applied to this AI-driven marketing ecosystem. Both the Co-Marketer and the AI Twins can be designed to improve incrementally on a daily basis. This improvement can come from various sources:

  • Learning from each interaction and decision made
  • Analysing the outcomes of marketing campaigns and customer interactions
  • Incorporating new data and market trends
  • Adapting to changes in customer behaviour and preferences

The concept of 1% daily improvement, compounding to a 37X increase over a year, is particularly powerful when applied to AI systems. Unlike humans, AI doesn’t tire and can consistently apply learnings across all operations. This continuous improvement can manifest in various ways:

  • More accurate customer segmentation
  • Better prediction of customer behaviour
  • More effective personalisation of marketing messages
  • Improved product recommendations
  • More efficient allocation of marketing resources

For martech companies, this confluence of Agentic AI, AI Twins, and Kaizen principles presents a significant opportunity. They can package this as “Kaizen Marketing” – a thin services layer that combines the power of AI with human expertise to deliver continuous marketing improvement.

Kaizen Marketing

In Kaizen Marketing, a human “services” team would work alongside the AI systems. Their role would be to:

  • Monitor the performance of the Co-Marketer and AI Twins
  • Provide domain expertise to enhance the AI models
  • Identify areas for improvement that the AI might miss
  • Ensure the AI’s decisions align with broader business goals and ethical considerations
  • Translate AI insights into actionable strategies for human decision-makers

This human-AI collaboration ensures that the system benefits from both ML capabilities and human intuition and creativity. It also addresses potential concerns about fully automating marketing decisions, providing a level of human oversight and strategic direction.

The Bundled Kaizen Services concept fits perfectly into this model. By offering this as a bundled service, martech companies can provide a comprehensive solution that includes both the AI technology and the human expertise needed to maximise its potential.

This approach offers several advantages:

  1. Continuous Improvement: The combination of AI’s learning capabilities and human expertise ensures ongoing enhancement of marketing strategies.
  2. Scalability: The AI can handle vast amounts of data and multiple tasks simultaneously, while the human team can focus on strategic oversight.
  3. Personalisation at Scale: The system can deliver highly personalized marketing at a scale impossible for human-only teams.
  4. Competitive Advantage: For Indian SaaS companies, this bundled service leverages their cost advantage in providing high-quality human expertise alongside cutting-edge AI technology.

Thus, the integration of Agentic AI and Kaizen principles in marketing, facilitated by AI Twins and human expertise, represents a powerful new direction for Martech. It promises to deliver continuous improvement in marketing performance at a scale and speed previously unattainable, potentially transforming how companies approach their marketing strategies and customer engagement.
