Overview

With announcements from OpenAI, Google and Apple it is becoming clearer that their AI products are positioning themselves for closer relationships to consumers. As more sits within their walled gardens and we have less control over search, alerts and summaries, where does discovery come from in the future? What does the future of our relationships with consumers look like? And what formats should we be delivering in? As a group we will discuss various scenarios and how we prepare for them.

Product & Tech Seminar

It is becoming increasingly clear that AI answer engines are becoming the future of search. What is less clear is news organisations' place within this economy. In this session we will have open conversations with key technology companies which are shaping the future of content discovery. WE’ll be focusing the conversations around two key questions:

1. For news events, how do you reward accuracy (i.e. verified information and sources) over speed (which has the potential to be flooded by bad actors)?

2. How do you work with content owners, if at all, for grounding/RAG? Specifically around permission, attribution and monetisation.
