Since the launch of ChatGPT in late 2022, marketers have been exploring new ways to use AI in their social media strategies. In January, brands and creators began testing it for tasks like writing ad copy, drafting post captions, and generating creative ideas for campaigns.

The appeal is speed and variety. ChatGPT can produce multiple versions of a caption in seconds, helping social media managers test different tones and messages. Some marketers are using it to brainstorm content themes, while others are experimenting with AI-generated scripts for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.
However, there are also questions. Many brands are unsure about how much AI-generated content they should use, and whether audiences can tell the difference. There are discussions about maintaining a human voice, ensuring accuracy, and avoiding over-reliance on AI for creativity.
Right now, most experiments are small-scale. Marketers are pairing AI drafts with human editing to keep content authentic. But the interest is growing, and more companies are considering AI as a regular tool in their social media workflow.
