As digital marketing continues to grow, we've seen far too much politics in the marketing landscape.

Big names in advertising agencies are proclaiming that digital marketers don't know what they're doing. Digital agencies and platforms are claiming that advertising and PR are dead.

Facebook's latest announcement of its Chat Bot feature sees a shift towards using artificial intelligence to engage with customers on social media. But considering recent events such as the disaster of Microsoft's Tay Chat Bot, should companies be concerned about using this feature?

Once I started accepting that I was in fact an entrepreneur, I started living it.
