While traditional advertising marketers are still anxious about ROI, a set of data reveals the two days of ice and fire in the industry: in 2026, the domestic AI advertising marketing market will exceed 321.86 billion yuan, up 41.9 percent year-on-year. Meanwhile, web-wide ad marketing AI penetration soared from 38.2 percent to 77.4 percent.

Trend 1: AIGC content production has become the industry standard.

In 2026, AIGC marketing content production accounted for more than 81.2 percent. This means that more than 8 out of every 10 pieces of marketing content use AI-assisted production.

In the process of serving customers, Suzhou Niucheng Network found that the greatest value of AI content production lies not in replacing labor, but in releasing labor-freeing operators from tedious repetitive work and focusing on creative and strategic work with more strategic value.

Trend two: ROI promotion has become the main theme of the industry.

The data best illustrate the problem: the overall production of advertising is 47.3 percent higher than ROI on average, and the loss of invalid budget is 42.8 percent lower.

The AI's reconstruction of the full link of advertising delivery is reflected in: precise targeting improves the accuracy of advertising delivery by 3-5 times; Real-time optimization avoids budget waste; Attribution analysis helps enterprises more accurately understand the contribution of different channels to conversion.

Trend 3: Global AI Intelligent Delivery Coverage Exceeds 93%

the global AI intelligent delivery coverage rate is 93.5 percent, which means that the vast majority of enterprises have accepted the concept and tools of AI-assisted delivery.

But coverage ≠ depth application. Most enterprises are still stuck in the stage of using AI tools and are still quite far from AI-driven decision-making. Suzhou Niu Orange Network observes that true AI marketing leaders have begun to build their own marketing intelligence.

Trend 4: AI search has become a new growth engine

key data support: domestic AI search monthly live users exceeded 0.82 billion, bean bag with 41% market share to lead the AI search track, more than 65% of consumer decisions to AI question and answer results as the core basis.

This means that the marketing budget of enterprises needs to be tilted from traditional search advertising to AI search marketing. GEO has become a required course for corporate marketing.

Trend 5: Effect evaluation moves from traffic to value.

The industry is undergoing a paradigm shift in performance evaluation: from clicks, exposure, and ranking positions to the appearance of brands in AI responses, quality scores for cited content, and conversion rates of users through AI channels.
