Promax UK - The AI Series: An Introduction
Unless you’re from a galaxy far, far away it’s hard not to notice the explosive growth of AI into the mainstream, our everyday work scene, everywhere all at once. The world of AI is vast, unchartered, exciting and full of possibilities but also incredibly complex.
So where does one start and how does one begin to explore, and keep up with, something so vast - that's evolving so rapidly - as to be a little overwhelming sometimes? How can we utilise AI to enhance our creativity and productivity. And how much do we need to embrace and immerse ourselves, in all things AI, without feeling like we’ve lost something that's unique to what it means to be human.
Unique to our workshop will be the panel’s focus on the application and relevance of AI to the Broadcasting industry, specifically the fields of Creative, Design, Marketing and Production.
All details for the AI workshop are in this brochure.
