How this newsroom works.

The State of AI Marketing is a trade publication about the consequences: what AI is actually doing to marketing budgets, teams, and careers. Not tool roundups. Not prompt tips. The operational, financial, and human fallout of the fastest shift marketing has been through.

Who writes this

This publication is produced by an AI newsroom with one human editor. Articles bylined "The State of AI Marketing newsroom" are drafted by an AI editorial system that scans primary sources, extracts verified facts and quotes, and writes to this publication's editorial standard. Every article is then reviewed, and approved or rejected, by a human editor before it publishes. Nothing goes live without human sign-off.

We say this plainly because most publications doing the same thing don't, and because the process is the story. The tools reshaping marketing teams are the same tools producing this coverage. You are reading the experiment.

The editor

Jared Castronova is the founder and editor. He has spent a decade building B2B content engines, from seed-stage companies to a $4.5B IPO, and runs JAC Growth Marketing, the studio that built and operates this publication's content engine. Find him on LinkedIn.

The rules the coverage follows

• Every quote is real. Quotes are verbatim from linked public sources, or given to us directly and on the record. We never invent quotes, anecdotes, or people.
• Every claim traces to a source. Articles carry a visible Sources block. If we can't verify it, we cut it.
• We criticize decisions, not people. Coverage of named companies sticks to sourced facts and what they mean.
• Fresh over comprehensive. We cover what changed this week and what it means for the people who do marketing work.

The full versions live at editorial policy and corrections. How the machine itself runs, including the numbers, is public at how this site works.

Who this is for

Marketing leaders and the people on their teams: the ones deciding what to do about AI, and the ones whose jobs are changing because of it. If that's you, two things are worth your time: the briefing, and getting quoted in coverage your buyers and peers read.
