Dentsu's Meeting of The Minds

Andrew Ross Sorkin, Beth Ann Kaminkow, and Meredith Kopit Levien sat down at Dentsu's Meeting of the Minds to share their expert insights. The conversation on trust, AI, and what the industry is not talking about enough was exactly as sharp as the lineup suggests.

The Biggest Question Nobody Is Asking: AI will supercharge people with experience. But what happens to the next generation coming in without that experience to push back on it? The apprenticeship problem is the conversation the industry is avoiding. 🎯

Trust Is the Topic of Our Time: Every institution, every brand, every leader is grappling with the same question right now: what does trust mean in the age of AI? Andrew calls it the biggest moment for brands trying to figure that out. 💡

AI Cannot Report the News: High-quality independent journalism is human beings going out into the world and reporting what would otherwise go unknown. Meredith is direct: AI cannot do that. And we should not want it to. 📰

Human Agency Is What Is Actually at Stake: Andrew's deepest worry is not about efficiency or jobs. It is about whether we will still have our own agency to make the right decisions when large language models are telling us what to think. 🤖

Money Explains Everything. Even Family: Andrew's family says he sees the world through the prism of money. He does not disagree. Meredith says her family knows she is obsessed with making people understand why high-quality independent journalism matters. Beth Ann is focused on whether her team is truly listening to each other. 🎬
