Mumbai, April 6: The Maharashtra chapter of the IIMC Alumni Association hosted its annual “Connections Mumbai Meet” on Saturday night at the Royal Bombay Yacht Club, bringing together alumni, media professionals and industry voices.
Focus on AI and media transformation
Discussions centred on how artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping the media landscape. From automated news gathering and data-driven reporting to personalised content delivery, AI is transforming how stories are produced and consumed.
While it offers speed and scale, concerns around misinformation, deepfakes and editorial credibility remain. Speakers stressed the need for journalists to adapt, upskill and uphold ethical standards.
