Annabella Coldrick, the chief executive of MMF, said this: “The implications of existing AI technologies are massive, especially for music managers. They need to understand the commercial, legal, and practical implications of this machine-based innovation. It’s an exciting field, and we’ve gathered an incredible lineup of speakers and experts who can cover it all in one day at an affordable price.
And that’s not all. We’re also using this event to launch the MMF’s all-new Guide To AI. It’s gonna give every manager the key understandings and talking points they need when negotiating with their clients and business partners.”
