Humanizing AI: The Authenticity Paradox in Modern Marketing
You’ve probably heard that AI is taking over marketing, but the truth is, it’s missing something only humans can bring.
That’s the perspective I explored in my thought-leadership piece for The AI Journal, “The Authenticity Paradox: Why AI-Driven Marketing Needs More Humanity.”
We’ve hit a turning point where automation alone isn’t enough. The future belongs to brands that know how to make technology feel. Because real connection can’t be coded, it has to be felt, understood, and lived.

The Real 3-Second Rule: How to Earn Emotion Before Attention Fades
You’ve probably heard that you only have three seconds to grab attention online, but those seconds don’t belong to the algorithm. They belong to the audience.
That’s the core insight I contributed to Signalytics’ an Amazon advertising agency in their breakdown on creating scroll-stopping content that actually connects.
The 3-second rule comes down to earning emotion before attention fades.
In those first few seconds, a hook has to do three things fast:
• Spark feeling — curiosity, nostalgia, recognition, even a little shock.
• Disrupt the pattern — break what people expect to see.
• Anchor familiarity — use something recognizable so the brain connects instantly.
When I’m creating hooks for clients, I focus on relatable disruption something that feels new but emotionally familiar. Whether it’s a raw moment from rehearsal or a single line that flips a trend, it has to earn curiosity fast and deliver on the payoff.
Here’s what I keep coming back to: the best scroll-stopping content isn’t about shock value. It’s about connection. That’s the real 3-second rule.
