Is creative decision intelligence the same as AI ad generation?

No. AI ad generation is a production capability. Creative decision intelligence is the broader practice of connecting context, creative work, evidence, interpretation and reusable knowledge.

Is narrative testing the same as testing minor creative changes?

Not necessarily. Narrative testing compares strategic messages or audience propositions; a creative-variant test may compare execution details within one narrative.

Why does campaign memory matter?

Campaign memory prevents strategic context and performance learning from disappearing when a campaign ends or a team member changes.
