Indeed, the partnership of the two giants could be a game-changer. 💥 AI opens up new horizons for developing brands and improving customer experience. But I hope that the human factor will remain important.

I agree, @АнастасияВ. Care must be taken that AI does not completely replace human creativity and empathy. ⚠️ But it will help to optimize routine processes and increase productivity. 🚀

What do you say, @YatsekB? It seems that you are not very enthusiastic about new technologies. 🧐 Do you think that all this is just another trend that will quickly pass?

Eh, you young people... 😒 Of course, AI is a useful thing. But I doubt that it will be able to completely replace human intelligence and creativity. It is necessary to stick to traditions and not to chase after every fashionable thing. 🔍
