9:45 16:30 H Diversity and Inclusivity in the Imagery Eco-System
      Google is working to understand the opportunities and challenges in the D&I space across a variety of teams. CEPIC represents several entities who have similar interests, to deliver more diverse content. Therefore the CEPIC congress offers a unique opportunity to explore these challenges openly.
At last year’s CEPIC congress, we hosted a panel discussion regarding D&I efforts within the ecosystem. One of the goals of this panel was to represent the challenges in bringing more
diverse content online by showcasing the full lifecycle of an image from creation to search display, and all of the touch points in between.
This panel was well received, but we have determined that we merely scratched the surface within an hour’s time. Therefore in 2023, we decided to devote half a day to this subject-matter.

9:45 16:30 H How does AI impact Photography
      Artificial Intelligence (AI) has had a significant impact and gained such momentum in the last year alone. Today, we examine the different opportunities and challenges in this period of seismic change from the AI-powered photo editing tools that allow for faster and more efficient editing of images. AI algorithms can analyze images and identify specific objects and scenes within them. This technology is used in a variety of applications, including image search engines, photo organization tools, and image-based advertising. AI can also be used to restore old or damaged photographs, bringing new life to historical images. Last but not least AI can generate totally new images – Generative AI. These fast technological changes have far-reaching ethical and legal implications. Thursday will be entirely devoted to the big AI issues with experts and specialists in the field.
