AIDI Spotlight on SRG-SSR’s AI Work
31 Jan 2022
On 31 January 2022, the Artificial Intelligence and Data Initiative (AIDI) put a spotlight on the multilingual national Swiss Broadcasting Corporation (SRG SSR) and their work on AI and data.
This event was the fourth instalment of our series of virtual visits of EBU Members focusing on their AI-related work. It was a great opportunity to discover how the SRG SSR is structured in the field of Artificial Intelligence and how this technology is applied in everyday production processes. From archives to online publications and scientific collaborations with universities, we got an overview of their most interesting active projects. Participants were invited to look for commonalities, opportunities for contributions, collaborations with SRG SSR, and to get to know their work and team members.

- Introductory Overview of SSR SRG’s AI Coordination and Projects (Massimiliano Babbucci)
