By the end of this lesson, you will learn how generative AI improves feature engineering in SMS campaign data. This AI automates the extraction of complex patterns and relationships, making it more efficient and powerful than traditional manual methods. We'll also discuss how previous techniques required extensive domain expertise and often lacked scalability and adaptability. Additionally, you'll get a tutorial on using a generative AI model to automatically label different parts of SMS campaign messages with a step-by-step code walkthrough in Python. This approach will show you how generative AI transforms raw data into actionable insights for better campaign management.
