Like a genie trapped in a bottle, information was once contained in books and tightly controlled by newspapers. Then the Internet was launched 50 years ago as a way for government researchers to share information – 534 years after Gutenberg created his printing press. Now, with the latest wave of AI-generated tools, anyone can publish their ideas, opinions, and experiences. AI as a force in business has been unleashed, and it is changing how we work and what we read.

The ITC Innovation Lab is pleased to host the open launch of a new International Trade Centre report, called Living with the Genie – Artificial Intelligence in Content Creation for Small Businesses in Trade.

Join the authors, contributors, and external guests to explore the promise and perils of AI tools when creating content in the workplace.

The launch takes place on Thursday, 14 March at 3.30pm (CET) at the International Trade Centre in Geneva. The event will also be available online.
