Accountable Innovation: Aligning AI, Sustainability, and Public Trust
Speakers
The information landscape is undergoing a fundamental transition. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming how people find, access, and process information. This shift has wide ranging impacts on daily life – from which laptop is the best buy for your individual needs, to which party you should vote for in the next election.
AI is also increasingly adopted by media companies. It is used to generate written, audio and visual content; to provide subtitles and translations to video content; and for operational processes such as tagging content against themes, including sustainability.
This raises important considerations for the sector. What does the AI transformation mean for media? How is it impacting public trust in media? What are the social and environmental sustainability implications for the sector?
Emily Jackson-Kessler is Senior Vice-President for Sustainability at The Economist Group, where she leads the company's sustainability strategy, governance, and climate transition planning.
