How will AI and machine learning influence us?

AI is a vast and evolving topic – for this webinar we concentrated on where we already see it being used in the image industry.

We started with an overview of AI in relation to our industry, followed by an introduction to practical AI uses and tools already available, and concluded with a Q&A.

Specifically we looked at:

  • training visual AI programmes using machine learning and copyright protection;
  • the role of synthetic content vs traditional content, touching on human creativity and editorial integrity;
  • opportunities for picture agencies and clients, including improving image search, AI licensing and income generation.
