With the final programme now up and running, here’s a taste of what to expect:
DAY 1
Wednesday 7 December is our Fellowship Showcase. Meet our JournalismAI Fellows, and learn about the innovative projects they have been working on this year.
Over the last six months, they’ve been developing new journalistic solutions for everything from fact-checking and social media monitoring, to image recognition and topic modelling.
On the first day of the Festival, each Fellowship team will present the outcomes of their projects and talk about what they learned during the process.
DAY 2
On Thursday 8 December, we’ll be Delving Deeper into AI. Here are some of the sessions you can look forward to:
How the Guardian uses AI to analyse articles, with the Guardian’s Lead Data Scientist Anna Vissens and Ines Montani, Co-founder and CEO of Explosion.
Collaboration and AI, with Marina Walker Guevara, Executive Editor at the Pulitzer Center.
Getting started with AI as a small newsroom, with Aimee Rinehart and Ernest Kung from AP’s Local News AI Initiative.
