In this forward-looking session, leading experts explore how artificial intelligence—especially large language models and generative technologies—is reshaping the publishing value chain. From automating editorial workflows to transforming production and reader experiences, the discussion examines both the opportunities and the ethical challenges AI brings to digital publishing.

Key Topics Covered:

  • Current State of AI in Publishing: How publishers and technology innovators are already using AI to streamline and enhance their work.

  • Emerging Practices & Use Cases: Real-world examples of AI-driven tools in editing, content production, and metadata management.

  • Ethical & Practical Challenges: Addressing bias, copyright, and transparency while integrating AI responsibly.

  • Future Outlook: How AI could redefine publishing roles, workflows, and reader engagement in the years ahead.

Speakers:
An introductory message by Adam Hyde (Coko Foundation) is followed by a panel discussion moderated by Virginie Clayssen (President, EDRLab) with Samuel Petit (Comix AI, Groupe De Marque), Gregorio Pellegrino (Fondazione LIA), and Vincent Gros (Hachette).

This session offers publishers, editors, and digital innovators a clear, critical perspective on prototyping AI for practical use while navigating its rapidly evolving risks and possibilities.
