As organizations embrace AI to scale customer interactions, community leaders face a deeper question than "how do we keep it human." The real risk isn't that AI feels impersonal. It's that AI becomes another layer of abstraction between brands and the people they serve, further distancing organizations from genuine customer relationships.In this episode of Talk About Your Community, host Todd Nilson is joined by Bill Johnston - founder of Structure3C and a pioneer in enterprise community strategy - to explore the growing tension between AI-driven efficiency and relationship-driven trust. With decades of experience building communities at scale at companies like Autodesk and Dell, Bill brings a perspective on what should (and should not) be automated.This conversation will explore the balance between AI implementation and relationship building within a community, when loyalty, trust, and long-term value are on the line.📅 February 20th at 10am Central👉 RSVP to join live and participate in the discussion: Bring your questions, perspectives, and real-world challenges as we unpack where AI belongs in community, and where it absolutely doesn’t.ABOUT BILL JOHNSTONBill Johnston runs Structure3C, a strategy firm focused on making customer relationships a serious business asset through communities and networks.
