KUCHING: Artificial Intelligence will be among the topics discussed at the inaugural Sarawak Media Conference 2024, which will be held in conjunction with the National Journalists’ Day celebration from May 25 to 27.
Kuching Division Journalists’ Association president Ronnie Teo said AI was chosen as a topic since Malaysia is proactively pushing forward to master the technology, which led to an increased demand for media practitioners to have a better understanding of the ethical aspects when utilising AI.“Since AI is a new technology in today’s world, we want to invite experts to talk about ethics in using AI, especially in journalism and the legal framework surrounding it,” he said to Bernama here Friday.
Apart from AI, Teo said SMEC 2024 will also focus on relevant matters such as data journalism, social media engagement, and online or netizen journalism.
