The event was supported by the Embassy of the Russian Federation in Bangladesh. Mikhail Konrad, Director of Special Projects at Rossiya Segodnya media group, spoke about how tools based on artificial intelligence are used to optimize the work of the media.
Russian Ambassador to Bangladesh Alexander Mantytsky appreciated the initiative of the media group in organizing the seminar.
“Media professionals of Russia and Bangladesh can exchange experiences and learn from each other through such training programmes. I believe that this cooperation is essential for building bridges between the two nations as well as for increasing the recognition of the Russian news agency in the Bangladeshi media landscape,” the envoy said.
Meanwhile, following the session Konrad shared his impressions saying that the main goal of the programm has been reached.
“Today we managed to achieve the most important thing - to establish live communication with colleagues despite the remote format of the conference. I would like to mention that the audience was interested in various aspects of new technologies, from financial to philosophical – for example, emotional contact between the audience and virtual avatar presenters,” Konrad stated.
