Turning Towards AI - In this keynote, we look at how much AI underpins the information and media we consume, at a touch of a button or swipe of a screen.

AI to increase revenue in media companies - a driver of transformation? - In spring 2024, nxt statista and the German publisher association MVFP conducted a joint study on the use of AI to increase revenue in media companies. In addition to a quantitative survey, more than 20 interviews were conducted with media decision-makers. The keynote will provide an up-to-date overview of the use of AI in the media industry as well as a well-founded classification of relevant trends and solutions. The main benefit is the systematic and quantitatively sound analysis of the potential of AI to increase revenue, combined with practical options for action and recommendations.
