Description
Welcome to Intelligent Artifice, the podcast that helps you become a 10x performance marketer.
Intelligent Artifice explores the cutting edge of the intersection of AI, creatives and performance marketing.
Every week, we deconstruct the ad systems behind high-performing advertisers using our in-house semantic analysis system, BruteForce AI , or we sit down with top operators redefining how advertising gets done in a Gen AI world.
Whether you’re scaling user acquisition, leading a creative team, or building a creative engine with AI, this podcast is your unfair advantage.
Intelligent Artifice is hosted by me, Shamanth Rao, the founder and CEO of the boutique growth marketing agency Rocketship HQ.
