We interviewed ChatGPT about public relations and while it does well with high-level questions, it becomes repetitive when those questions were more nuanced; the system says it is “unlikely” that it “or any other AI system will fully replace public relations (PR) professionals”. This is reflective of a traditional view of public relations.
