Maddy Keynote: A.I. a real game changer for the media industry?

From fighting fake news to monetizing old video content or globalizing audiences, artificial intelligence could completely transform the way medias operate and generate money. It was the subject of a conversation during the Maddy Keynote 2021.

Whether playing the game of go, driving cars, or learning to speak, artificial intelligence is now ubiquitous and benefits a wide range of industries. Like many others, the media sector has already been radically changed by the rise of the Internet and new technologies. Therefore, it makes all the more sense to think about what lies ahead, and there is no doubt that artificial intelligence will play an important role.

Three industry professionals gathered at the Maddy Keynote 2021 to discuss this topic. Guillaume Doret, CEO of Synchronized , Arnaud Mopin, Director of Innovation of TF1 and Jean-Philippe Poirault, Director of the Telecom, Media & Technologies market at Atos.
