May 9th - 10th
Nordic AI in Media Summit 2023
The increasing adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) by mainstream news publishers is marking the beginning of a new digital epoch. The journey ahead will fundamentally transform media and is associated with great potential and significant risks.
At the Nordic AI in Media Summit, we invite industry practitioners to learn from media companies at the forefront of AI adoption with 16 examples of applied AI already in use and creating value. Further, we raise important discussions about the potential of AI and how to ensure healthy norm setting for AI in news via five keynote presentations as well as panels and workshops with experts from the Nordics and beyond.
Time and place
The summit spans a day and a half from May 9th (12 pm) to May 10th (5 pm) and takes place at PRESSEN (JP/Politikens Hus) by the central square in Copenhagen. There will be multiple opportunities to interact with speakers and colleagues including question-and-answer sessions, workshops, and a networking dinner for all participants on the first day.
The program for the Nordic AI in Media Summit is developed by Platform Intelligence in News project (PIN) in collaboration with the Nordic AI Journalism network, while Ekstra Bladet in JP/Politikens Hus hosts the event.
