TVNewsCheck is set to focus on how artificial intelligence is revolutionising media operations in a dedicated webinar on May 14, exploring the shift from pilots to integrated systems and the rise of agentic AI in 2026.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

TVNewsCheck will put artificial intelligence at the centre of a Working Lunch webinar on May 14, as the industry wrestles with how quickly the technology is moving from experiment to day-to-day infrastructure. The session, titled “AI and Media Workflows in 2026”, is set for 1 p.m. ET and will focus on how AI is being woven into operations from ingest and playout to capture, editing and multiplatform distribution.<\/p>\n

The discussion comes as media companies increasingly treat AI not as a novelty but as an operational layer that can help route content, apply policy and take on repetitive tasks. Industry commentary from TV Technology and CSI Magazine suggests the emphasis in 2026 is shifting away from isolated pilots and towards systems that can handle context, manage multi-step workflows and deliver measurable efficiency gains.<\/p>\n

TVNewsCheck said the webinar will examine both generative and agentic AI, reflecting growing interest in tools that can do more than draft text or summarise material. Agentic systems, in particular, are being watched closely for their ability to act within editorial and policy guardrails, which could give newsrooms and engineering teams new ways to automate routine work while keeping human oversight in place.<\/p>\n

The panel will bring together Peter Abecassis of Ross Video, Colin Benedict of Morgan Murphy Media and Michael Newman of Graham Media Group, with TVNewsCheck contributing editor Glen Dickson moderating. Michael Depp, TVNewsCheck’s chief content officer, said in announcing the event that no media leader can afford to fall behind on AI developments, given the competitive edge they may provide and the unanswered questions around what still remains elusive for news and engineering operations.<\/p>\n
