Publishing masterclasses, AI vs the unions, authors vs AI - all in Content Aware this week.
Publishing Masterclasses: thank you
A huge thank you to the very many who attended our Modern Media & Publishing Technology Masterclasses event in London this week, hosted by AWS at the Amazon HQ and in conjunction with front-end gurus Vercel.
The event was an equal mix of conference and conferring: world-class guest speakers shed light on complex topics such as micro front-ends (Luca Mezzalira), future-proofing your architecture (Philip Fitzsimons), ground-up overhauls of massive publishing operations (Andrew Macharg), and utilising front-end teams and tech better to speed product iteration (Ben Seymour), while between sessions delegates got plentiful time to mix and mingle with peers similarly expert in solving classic publishing problems.
Attendees also got a sneak-peak of an imminent GPP platform feature from our CEO Denis Haman which leverages the best of the trustworthy AI LLMs and tools to speed editorial workflows and manage image libraries in a way which publishers can actually benefit from. Contact us to know more.
We plan other such events in the future in locations worldwide, so keep an eye open for further dates and themes, or drop us a line to be kept in the loop.

The digital town square is closed for redevelopment
Once Facebook and other platforms showed us that the "digital town square" often had a great deal of rotten fruit and even more rotten insults thrown across it, the idea of any civic virtue as a guiding principle in social media was dropped quicker than a radioactive watermelon.

Corbidge comments on... can WordPress afford to alienate its massive community?
A stray tweet implying for-profit WordPress.com wasn't dealing fairly with community plugin developers points to an operational paradox at the heart of the popular system.
