25. How are public media using Artificial Intelligence?
In this special episode, we’re in Taiwan, looking at how public media are adopting and embracing Artificial Intelligence.
The episode spotlights seven different projects either being worked on; trialled and tested; or in use already. The projects cover four themes related to AI: news & journalism; children’s content; language services; and organisation.
We also consider the current relationship between public media and Artificial Intelligence, with Develop AI founder and AI expert, Paul McNally.
The episode was recorded at the PTS Symposium on Public Media & AI, held in Taipei in early September. For more information, click on this link: https://www.pts.org.tw/2024pts_symposium/.
