Making the Future Work - Session 3 - Sector Focus: UK Creative Industries. 2023
The UK’s creative sector is a key powerhouse of the UK economy. But - as evidenced by the recent Hollywood writers’ strike – an industry previously thought protected from the influence of AI as a result of its assumed dependence on human creativity, is now feeling the pressure from generative systems. In this session we will hear from across the creative sector about these impacts and pressures, and seek to understand what previously overlooked risks and mitigations might follow from the adoption of AI technologies.
Speakers:
● Dr Mike Katell – Alan Turing Institute (moderator)

● Shobana Iyer, Barrister at Swan Chambers specialising in technology, media and communications
