In his presentation, Phillip Heger uses examples to illustrate where AI tools effectively save time in the day-to-day operations of a media company, but also where he deliberately chooses not to use them – and why most workflow optimisations fail not because of the technology, but because the company’s own processes are not sufficiently defined. 

Phillip Heger is responsible for digital and corporate development at Sachsen Media and has been developing in-house software for editorial and planning teams for several years.
