In Person in New York or via the Global Livestream
Dear Reader, Much of what we see online today is mediated by algorithms, from the videos in our TikTok feeds to the products recommended by retailers like Amazon. Kyle Chayka, New Yorker staff writer and author of the book "Filterworld: How Algorithms Flattened Culture," writes: "When feeds are algorithmic, they appear differently to different people: it's impossible to know what someone else is seeing at a given time, thus harder to feel a sense of community with others online, the sense of collective you might feel when watching a movie in a theatre or sitting down for a pre-scheduled cable TV show." If you're as obsessed about the topic of fashion and culture in the age of algorithms as I am, I invite you to join us on March 22 at the BoF Professional Summit – New Frontiers: AI, Digital Culture and Virtual Worlds at The Times Center in New York City. |
Kyle will be sharing his deep expertise on how algorithms influence the ways brands reach their audiences, craft their identities and create deep, meaningful relationships with their fandoms.
Over the course of the day, we will also be examining artificial intelligence and other disruptive technologies in a series of talks and in-depth conversations which will also be livestreamed for our global community.
