The RAG system architecture integrates a retrieval layer with a generative model, but this adds complexity and can slow response times, especially in real-time applications. Training and fine-tuning require careful alignment between retrieved information and generated text, with challenges in ensuring relevant data retrieval and preventing hallucinations in responses. Balancing accuracy and latency is a key concern when deploying such systems at scale. Evaluating performance involves optimizing both the quality of retrieval and the fluency of the generated output, which can be resource-intensive. While RAG shows strong potential for use cases like personalized content and fact-checking, scaling these solutions while maintaining speed and accuracy remains a significant challenge in practical applications.
As AI-generated content proliferates, newsrooms are increasingly challenged by the spread of misinformation.

Many talk about the future potential of AI, but what can we do here and now? VG and its parent company Schibsted, one of the leading media organizations in Scandinavia, have developed nearly 30 internal AI tools and use AI to analyze news cycles, as well as their own AI analysis tools to process VG’s internal data. Moving from being a digital-first organization, VG and Schibsted are well on their way to becoming an AI-first news organization, with ongoing AI projects in every department, from sports and celebrity news to investigative journalism.

Join us for a conversation with Senior Editor for AI Strategy and Innovation Phoebe Connelly on how The Washington Post is using AI to build products that delight users and improve how our newsroom reports and delivers the news.

One of the most promising and common uses of generative A.I. in media is for summarizing information. Machine-generated summaries can help reach new audiences and produce the news more efficiently, but condensing information is an art, and a lot can be lost in the process. We’ll discuss summarization in detail and explain how The New York Times is thinking about these questions, too.
With AI-driven technologies like Apple Intelligence incorporating summarization throughout their operating systems, this talk is essential for anyone interested in the future of media.

Agents represent the natural evolution of conversational AIs in the automation and streamlining of processes.
While each agent’s potential comes from being a conversational AI designed with specific objectives and skills (akin to those of a human in a defined editorial role), the real breakthrough happens when multiple agents are integrated into a collaborative team that works autonomously to achieve its goals.
What is the key to unlocking the vast creative potential of these agent teams? One thing: communication. It all lies on how the human designer establishes effective communication protocols between the agents within the team.

In this session, presented by Nacho Delgado of Unidad Editorial, we explore how artificial intelligence is transforming journalism, with a focus on the tools and practices used by UE. We will analyze how AI responds to the growing demand for immediacy and agility in newsrooms, enabling the transition from paper to digital, and improving SEO and social media optimization. We will discuss the creation of new teams in newsrooms and how AI supports content creation, strategic decision making and the personalization of data-driven editorial strategies. In addition, we will show how Marfeel Copilot+ and other solutions allow to reduce development and analysis times, improving editorial planning and content performance.

AI integration in organizations demands a fundamental restructuring of team governance. In this session, we’ll explore how AI influences decision-making, role allocation, and human-machine collaboration. We’ll also discuss the concept of organizational “rescaling,” analyzing strategies to efficiently and flexibly scale teams in response to the new dynamics introduced by AI.





The widespread adoption of generative AI represents the most significant technological transformation in the media industry since the advent of the Internet. Ingrid Verschuren, Head of Data and Artificial Intelligence at Dow Jones; Clara Ruipérez de Azcárate, Director of Legal Strategy for Content, Trademarks, Patents, and Digital Transformation at Telefónica; and Francisco Asensi Viana, Director of Strategic Alliances and Innovation at DeAPlaneta Entertainment, will discuss the opportunities and challenges that AI brings to the media landscape in this new era.
