AI attribution modeling: past first- and last-touch

Attribution has always been half science, half politics. AI can improve the science; it can't fix the politics.

Where AI helps

  • Multi-touch weighting from real behavior data
  • Incrementality testing at higher velocity
  • Cross-channel deduplication

Where AI over-promises

Any deterministic 'this dollar generated that dollar' claim. Attribution is inherently probabilistic; don't buy a vendor that pretends otherwise.

Cadence

Refresh the model monthly. Present it quarterly. Weekly attribution debate is a waste of leadership calories.
