AI-Café on "Generative AI in Media: societal, ethical & legal perspectives"

On May 7th, 2024 AI4media project organises an engaging session of the AI Café focused on the transformative role of Generative AI in the media sector, exploring legal, ethical and societal aspects. 

Generative AI offers numerous opportunities across the media cycle, from news gathering to distribution. However, it also brings forth significant societal, ethical, and legal challenges. Our upcoming AI Café will explore these multidisciplinary considerations with insights from leading researchers:

- Anna Scjøtt Hansen – University of Amsterdam
- Noémie Krack – Centre for IT and IP law (CiTiP) of KU Leuven
- Lidia Dutkiewicz – Centre for IT and IP law (CiTiP) of KU Leuven

The speakers will explore the impact of Generative AI on societal structures, creativity, the environment, and the media’s role in information dissemination and copyright issues. The session will also cover the implications of new EU legal frameworks, like the AI Act, on these challenges.

The event will conclude with the introduction of the AI Media Observatory, an interactive platform providing extensive resources on AI in media. Learning how you can both benefit from and contribute to this essential resource.

We look forward to your participation in what promises to be a thought-provoking discussion on the intersections of AI, media, and society.
