From the 4th to 6th March, 2024, Yaoundé hosts the AUB-UNESCO Summit (https://www.UAR-AUB.org/) on Artificial Intelligence and Media.

At the forefront are African media, facing the significant challenge of navigating daily technological advancements.

The Yaoundé AUB-UNESCO Summit on Artificial Intelligence and Media also serves as a gathering for leading scientists in the field of artificial intelligence. It involves presenting and debating research findings and their applications within the media.

The African Union of Broadcasting (AUB) and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) are honored to facilitate this crucial dialogue.

Discussions will focus on ethical considerations in automating editorial processes and the impact of AI on information diversity and integrity.

The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) and the International Telecommunications Union (IUT), primarily concerned by these issues, will also be at the meeting.

Beyond fostering strategic partnerships, participants will have the opportunity to dwell on shaping the future of African media by embracing AI as a powerful tool for innovation, information dissemination, and inspiration.
