AI is not necessarily indifferent to ideas in digital marketing. It fails at understanding how humans misuse those ideas. I noticed something that made me feel bad. AI would suggest a smart campaign, headline, or funnel change. On paper, it was right. But once implemented, teams interpreted it, over-used it, or used it wrongly. CTR dropped. Brand tone was dimmed. Ads waned more. This happens every day in content marketing, ads, email campaigns and growth experiments. The problem is not AI intelligence. It’s human execution risk, which AI is never asked to look at. I stopped asking AI to give me “best strategies”. Before I give marketing a suggestion I ask AI one uncomfortable question: “How will humans do this?” I call this Misuse Prediction Mode. Here’s the exact question. The “Human Misuse” Prompt You are a Digital Marketing Risk Analyst. Task: Inspect this AI-generated marketing idea for human use. Rules: Think of partial understanding, shortcuts, and pressure to scale fast. List ways that the idea could be mis-used. If you feel that misuse is dangerous, call for guardrails. Output format: Likely misuse → Why it happens → Preventive guardrail. Example Output Likely misuse: Overusing urgency headlines Why it happens: Team chases short-term CTR Preventive guardrail: Limit urgency messaging to 20% of creatives per week. Likely misuse: Copy-pasting tone across platforms Why it happens: Time pressure Preventive guardrail: Platform-specific tone checklist Why this work? Good ideas do the majority of the marketing damage. This forces AI to create for real human behaviour, not for ideal execution. submitted by /u/cloudairyhq
