AI in the Media: Balancing Innovation, Quality, and Responsibility

Multi-perspective environments are needed when preparing an organization for the use of AI. In journalism, this approach should be combined with ethical guardrails to ensure publications are fact-checked, meet high journalistic standards, and preserve the trust of users. 

The two panelists provide insights into building AI and data strategy in media organizations, how to connect the use of AI to their mission, and how to build the ethical and infrastructural backbone to thrive in a data-driven environment. While bringing perspectives from the private sector and public service, TX Group’s Dominic Herzog and BR’s Uli Köppen are building on their extensive experience in leading data and AI teams within a journalistic environment, leveraging their expertise in journalism, advanced analytics, and data science.

 

This talk will be co-presented with Uli Köppen.
