    RECEIPT #MARK-R

    NOV 19, 2024

    Story still evolving.

    PREDICTION BY

    Mark Ritson
    “Only about 20 per cent of marketing teams are involved in product or in pricing anymore ... Everyone else, however, isn't – and there's a crisis coming.”

    FOLLOW-UP

    Ritson predicts a 'crisis coming' for marketers not involved in product and pricing, implying this situation will worsen as AI automates promotion-focused roles. This is a longer-term, qualitative prediction whose outcome is still unfolding and not easily quantifiable by a specific date. Therefore, it is categorized as 'evolving'.

    RECEIPT #SHIV-S

    MAY 06, 2025

    Too early to tell.

    PREDICTION BY

    Shiv Singh
    “He predicts that marketing teams will soon be at least 25% smaller”

    FOLLOW-UP

    The term 'soon' is imprecise. While AI adoption is increasing, there is no robust sector-wide statistic confirming that typical marketing teams are 'at least 25% smaller' than before AI adoption, making it unverified quantitatively.

    RECEIPT #SHIV-S

    FEB 18, 2025

    Too early to tell.

    PREDICTION BY

    Shiv Singh
    “within four years the marketing function … is going to be 25% smaller than [it] was a year ago, … and I have no reason to revise that prediction.”

    FOLLOW-UP

    The four-year window extends to approximately 2029, so the outcome is not yet testable. While AI suggests potential for leaner teams, no comprehensive empirical evidence supports a 25% reduction in brand marketing functions currently.
