Will AI Take Over All Marketing Agencies? Here’s the Truth
It’s 2025, and the big question is no longer if AI will impact marketing — but how much. Scroll through LinkedIn or X (formerly Twitter), and you’ll find creatives sounding the alarm: “AI is coming for our jobs!” But if you look closer — especially at the Gen Z crowd — you’ll notice a different narrative unfolding.
This isn’t a takeover. It’s a transformation. One that’s already in motion.
Gen Z: The Architects of a New Creative Era
Gen Z is the first generation to grow up fully digital. They don’t see AI as a threat — they see it as a co-creator. Whether it’s using ChatGPT to brainstorm caption ideas, training Notion AI to sort brand assets, or creating mockups in seconds with tools like Midjourney, Gen Z marketers are fluent in automation. But here’s the twist: they still care deeply about aesthetics, originality, and vibe.
That duality? That’s changing the game.
So, Will AI Replace Agencies? Short answer: No. But it will replace the agencies that refuse to evolve.
Clients today want:
AI helps scale operations — not replace creativity. At Knott, we’ve built internal flows that automate tedious processes like scheduling, first drafts, community responses, and even trend mapping. This gives our team more time to do what actually matters: crafting powerful brand stories that people remember.
Real-World AI Use at Knott
But here’s the secret: The results still depend on human inputs — the emotion, the relevance, the intention. That’s something AI can’t replicate.
What This Means for You
Whether you’re a Gen Z freelancer or a founder scaling your brand — the most successful players are the ones using AI as a creative partner, not a shortcut. You still need to know the pulse of your audience. You still need to tell a story that feels real. And you need a team (or agency) that gets both.
Final Takeaway
AI won’t kill creative agencies. It’ll expose the ones that never really understood creativity to begin with. At Knott, we’re not afraid of change — we’re building with it
