Pushing Boundaries: The AI Turing Test

Breakfast session

Join us on Thursday 13 November and step inside a groundbreaking experiment from Ogilvy and Lloyds Banking Group, where creativity meets cutting-edge technology.

The event is now sold out.

In a first-of-its-kind initiative, the teams ran a modern-day “Turing Test” to uncover how AI shapes the end-to-end development of real marketing campaigns. You’ll hear directly from the client and agency leads who drove the project, what they tried, what worked (and what didn’t), and what it all means for the future of our industry.

Why you should join us:

  • Discover the biggest takeaways from this bold AI experiment. The surprises, the challenges, and the breakthroughs.
  • Go behind the scenes with the teams who lived it, as they reveal how humans and machines collaborated to crack the brief.
  • Explore what the future of work looks like as AI continues to transform creative and strategic processes.
