On stage

Real-world perspectives on the media systems being built now.


Model Practical use of AI in television operations

While much of the media attention focuses on use of generative AI for content, there are practical uses of AI tools on the other side of the glass – in the operations and maintenance aspects of managing the plant.  This session focuses on Model Context Protocol – a natural and practical path for integration between agentic AI platforms and real-world systems.  A well-designed MCP can provide a secure, maintainable interface between traditional television infrastructure and AI systems, so high-level prompts and requests can yield useful results in a controlled and managed manner.
