Artificial Intelligence

What is artificial intelligence?

Artificial intelligence, often abbreviated as AI, refers to technologies that enable software systems to analyze data, recognize patterns, generate content, and make recommendations with minimal human intervention. In digital experience and marketing contexts, AI helps teams work faster, make smarter decisions, and deliver more relevant content at scale.

At Kentico, artificial intelligence is embedded directly into the platform through AIRA, the AI-powered assistant in Xperience by Kentico, where it enhances productivity, content quality, and governance without adding operational complexity.

Why is artificial intelligence important?

Artificial intelligence has moved from experimentation to everyday execution for modern marketing and digital teams. As content volumes, channels, and customer expectations continue to grow, AI helps organizations automate repetitive tasks while improving accuracy and consistency. 

Gartner reports that organizations embedding AI into core business workflows achieve faster time to value and higher adoption than those relying on disconnected AI tools. For marketers, this translates into more time for strategy and creativity, and less time spent on manual production work. 

How does artificial intelligence work, and why does it matter?

Artificial intelligence systems are trained on large volumes of structured and unstructured data. These systems learn patterns, predict outcomes, and generate outputs such as text, metadata, tags, or content recommendations.

A helpful analogy is a highly skilled assistant who improves with experience. The more context, structure, and guidance provided, the better the results. In digital platforms, AI matters because it scales expertise across teams, reduces friction in daily workflows, and increases the relevance of digital experiences.

Fun Fact

The word “robot” comes from a Czech play. It was first introduced in 1920 by writer Karel Čapek in his science fiction drama R.U.R. (Rossum’s Universal Robots). The term comes from the Czech word robota, meaning forced labor or drudgery. More than a century later, the idea has come full circle. Modern artificial intelligence is designed to take over the digital “robot work” marketers never wanted in the first place, repetitive tasks, manual tagging, and first-draft content, so humans can focus on creativity and strategy instead.
