I empower leaders with AI Workshops & B2B digital strategy | LinkedIn Top Voice | Public Speaker | Board Director | Podcaster🎙️

AI won’t replace communicators, but communicators who use AI will define the future.

The communications industry is evolving faster than most teams are prepared for. Those who integrate AI today, ethically, strategically, and confidently, will lead tomorrow’s conversations.

𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗜 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝗻.

I help PR and communications leaders future-proof their teams with practical, hands-on AI strategy. Through custom workshops, audits, and advisory programs, I bridge the gap between curiosity and capability, showing teams how to integrate AI into real-world workflows without losing the human voice that makes communications powerful.

I’ve trained and advised leaders across a variety of organizations like Ragan, MacMillan Publishing, Penguin Random House, PPG, etc., helping them build AI readiness, sharpen strategy, and unlock new efficiencies in content, reputation, and storytelling.

If your team wants to:
✅ Use AI responsibly, with clear governance and guardrails
✅ Build workflow efficiencies that actually stick
✅ Strengthen credibility in an AI-driven media landscape

Then 𝗹𝗲𝘁’𝘀 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗸. Visit chrisgee.me

Don't wait to future-proof your team.

If you’re attending 𝗔𝗜 𝗛𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘇𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 in Fort Lauderdale (Feb. 2–4), I’m excited to share what I’ll be leading there.

My session is called “𝗔𝗜 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗙𝗹𝗮𝘀𝗵: 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗮 𝗗𝗿𝗮𝗴-𝗮𝗻𝗱-𝗗𝗿𝗼𝗽 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝗟𝗶𝘃𝗲.”

And it’s exactly what it sounds like.

Instead of talking about AI agents, we’ll build one together in real time.

The goal isn’t to show something flashy or theoretical. It’s to demystify how agentic workflows actually work and where they’re useful for communications teams right now.

In the session, we’ll cover:

→ What makes an AI agent different from automation
→ Where agents actually add value for comms, and where they don’t
→ How to design a simple, targeted agent workflow without writing code
→ Why “don’t boil the ocean” is the most important rule in agent adoption
→ How to think about risk, oversight, and human-in-the-loop design from day one

This is for comms leaders who are past curiosity but not ready for overengineering.

People who want to understand what’s possible, what’s practical, and what’s premature.

If you’re responsible for AI adoption, workflow design, or future-proofing your team, this will be a hands-on session you can actually take something back from.

If you’re going to be there, let me know. I’d love to connect in Fort Lauderdale.

AI video tools are getting so good that it’s tempting to cut humans out of the loop altogether.

Avatars can speak on command. Scripts write themselves. Video can be generated, localized, and scaled in minutes. For teams under pressure to produce more content, faster, the pull toward fully synthetic video is real.

But the data tells a more complicated story.

According to Animoto’s 2026 State of Video report, audiences are increasingly on the lookout for AI-generated video. Many say they can spot it. More importantly, AI-heavy video can negatively impact trust when it feels inauthentic. 𝗜𝗻 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁, 𝟲𝟴% 𝗼𝗳 𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘀𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗼 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰. Efficiency matters, but credibility still matters more.

We can see this tension play out in the real world. Take Coca-Cola’s “Holidays Are Coming” campaign. The spots continue to lean heavily on nostalgia, emotion, and human connection, even as the production process itself is 100% devoid of people, which led to audiences saying it felt "cold." 

The magic isn’t that AI replaces people. The magic is that technology supports a story that still feels deeply human.

That’s the lesson for 2026.

The future of video is not 100% human or 100% synthetic. It’s hybrid. AI should handle the scale, speed, and craftsmanship behind the scenes. Humans should remain front and center where trust, emotion, and connection are the goal.

When we get that balance right, video doesn’t just perform better. It feels right.
