In this AI marketing podcast episode, Dan Sanchez dives deep into the newly released ChatGPT agents and how marketers can actually make them useful today. While many early users find the agents unreliable, Dan shares three specific tips to make them work more consistently in real-world marketing workflows. From SOPs and login best practices to using agents to trigger automations, he breaks down how to go from hype to helpful. He also covers ChatGPT's new study mode, a privacy warning about shared chats being indexed by Google, and explores the creative potential of AI-generated video ads.
