Minter Dialogue with Dr Alex Connock

Alex Connock, PhD, is an academic in Media Business and Artificial Intelligence at Oxford University, who has been shortlisted six times as Entrepreneur of the Year and is Vice Chair at UNICEF UK. He's also author of the book, Media Management and AI, Understanding Media Business Models in the Digital Age, published by Routledge. In this conversation, we discuss Alex's career and his pivoting into academia. We look at the arrival of generative AI, and how tools like Chat GPT will change so many industries, including media and education. We explore the impact of AI on news, cinema and teaching; the implications for copyright and for those working in marketing and the creative industries, and a whole lot more.
