ICI Bucharest and AGERPRES announce the official launch of the "AI Application - Agerpres News" project, an innovative project designed to revolutionize how information is distributed and consumed by the general public. During this event, the results of the "Agerpres Daily News" pilot project will be presented Hold History", which demonstrates the potential of advanced technologies in combating disinformation and promoting quality journalism. The event will take place on Friday, November 15, 2024, at the Palace of Parliament, and the organizers will invite all news producers in Romania to join the "AI Application - Agerpres News" project and contribute to the development of a media ecosystem based on transparency, verifiability and responsibility. "AI Application - Agerpres News" uses artificial intelligence to deliver quality news, and by integrating blockchain technology and non-fungible tokens (NFT), the project aims to guarantee the authenticity and provenance of information, promoting quality journalism and protecting the public from the risks of disinformation. "Agerpres Daily News | Hold History", the pilot project implemented by Agerpres, demonstrated how innovative technologies can contribute to improving the news verification process, offering a secure solution for archiving and accessing information transparently and efficiently. During the event, the impact of these technologies on the media ecosystem in Romania and the scaling possibilities of the "AI Application - Agerpres News" project will be discussed on a national and international level. Participants will also have the opportunity to learn more about how they can actively contribute to this project.

What Could/Should Be the Role of AI in the Newsroom? Data dignity, content credentials and defeating the deepfakes NAB Amplify is the dynamic, digital hub for the media and entertainment industry, delivering vital information, fostering expert dialogue, and providing continuous education to the NAB Show community. AI is about to significantly impact the news business, from how news stories and videos are created, to on-camera talent and how consumers get their news.   “People are reacting to AI as the worst thing that has ever happened to humanity or welcoming it as the most wonderful godsend,” says Judy Parnall, head of standards & industry at BBC. “We know we can’t avoid it. The question is how can we harness it for good to improve the process of news gathering and to increase trust in the truth of our reporting.” https://lnkd.in/gcQqNud4 https://lnkd.in/gMUHkdgi Just a totally realistic view of a broadcast studio, not at all generated with prompts.

As we’re building these platforms today, this is an excellent summary of where and how AI is transforming real-time digital content and cryptocurrencies and investment. An important read!

I’ve been thinking for sometime about the potential for a new revenue stream system based on generatively-derived works, and was delighted to hear rumblings of that notion from industry peers on the panels at the recent Signals Festival in Vancouver. I think there’s plenty of room for an indie-level compensation system that utilizes blockchain as a cross-index matrix to any person or groups work contained in a generative model, and contributes microroyalty payments off of any derived works from those data points. This initiative from ProRata.ai feels like a strong potential, for legacy content brands at least, to be the ideological wedge to make this ubiquitously stick. Fingers, and pocket books, crossed! 🤞 #ai #content #economy #ecosphere #blockchain #royalties #newhorizons

The New York Times vs. Perplexity - a clash of titans in the digital age! 💥 The Times' cease and desist letter is just the tip of the iceberg. It's a stark reminder that the tension between traditional media and AI is heating up. A recent study shows that nearly 70% of media organizations are worried about AI using their content without permission. It's time for some serious conversations about ethics and copyright. I believe we need a balance. ⚖️ AI innovation is exciting, but it shouldn't come at the cost of creators' rights. If we can find common ground, everyone wins. Media professionals can protect their work and earn revenue, while AI companies can build partnerships and improve their reputations. Let's have a real conversation about the future of digital content. Could technology similar to NFT art protection be used to protect content creators' rights? Digital watermarks, provenance tracking, and smart contracts could help prevent unauthorized use of content while allowing for responsible AI development.

This is a great read and I'm glad people are making these criticisms of AI and big tech with conviction and honesty. If you're in this industry, IMO you should be reading *at least* as much bubble-bursting stuff like this about the future prospects of AI as you're reading about how it's going to change the world and make incredible amounts of money. https://lnkd.in/etBHm6jc
