15. Synthetic Media as the New Future with Henrik de Gyor

Henrik de Gyor Is a writer, speaker, podcaster, co-founder of My DAM Services, and consultant at Another DAM Consultancy.

Today Henrik discusses synthetic media and why people are apprehensive about accepting it. He says that the grim picture many people have of AI is a product of the influence of movies, media, and entertainment. However, Henrik has an optimistic outlook on synthetic media and explains its usage for creative purposes, how it can reduce costs in many industries, and why it can change the lives of disabled people. He emphasizes that this technology offers fantastic opportunities to open new jobs and save money because it allows people to “be in more than one place at a time.” Furthermore, Henrik says, this technology will change our reality very shortly, and it will be an opportunity to scale oneself and bring education to the next level. Answering the question about fear of new things, Henrik says, “The technology itself is neutral. What you do with it is based on your intent.“
