AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Digital Afterlife Tech: AI “griefbots” and posthumous avatars are moving from novelty to a real industry, using stored voice, video and messages to simulate conversations with the deceased. Tobacco Rules Tighten (Kuwait): Kuwait’s health ministry issued new controls covering tobacco and nicotine products, including e-cigs and heated tobacco, banning sales in schools and youth venues and blocking online sales and advertising. Maharashtra FDA Crackdown (India): Maharashtra FDA issued show-cause notices to Shah Rukh Khan, Ajay Devgn and Tiger Shroff over their Vimal Elaichi ad, alleging surrogate promotion of banned pan masala; actors are told to respond within 15 days and remove related content. Brand Safety & Values (India): Sunny Deol reiterated he refuses pan masala endorsements, saying he won’t promote what he doesn’t believe in. AI Meets Ads (OpenAI): OpenAI is expanding its ChatGPT advertising pilot into new markets like the UK, Mexico, Brazil, Japan and South Korea. Media/MarCom Business Moves: Parag Murudkar joined Aditya Birla Sun Life AMC as head of marketing, while dentsu India COO Kartik Iyer retired after more than 30 years. Consumer Trust Challenge: Deepfakes are increasingly showing up in social media and ads, with regulators warning people struggle to tell what’s real.
