INSIGHTS
It may take some time for artificial intelligence (AI) to create content indistinguishable from that which comes from the minds of humans. AI is, however, already playing the role of creative assistant. When will AI be able to produce media independently? How will it enable personalization and targeting? Jukedeck's Lydia Gregory and Video Gorilla's Jason Brahms will explore the possibilities of AI in professional content creation.
