Panel Details

“Towards hybrid intelligence: AI and human analysis of Greek political rhetoric”

This panel explores an innovative approach that blends human expertise with artificial intelligence to scrutinize the pre-election campaign speeches of Greece’s main political figures. Our distinguished panelists will discuss how they employed AI algorithms to categorize issues, sentiments, and rhetorical devices, while also identifying markers of polarization and populism. By comparing this data-driven analysis with traditional journalistic scrutiny, we aim to uncover new insights into the strategies and priorities of Greece’s political leadership. Attendees will gain an understanding of how AI can augment human skills in journalism, the challenges involved, and the ethical considerations of this interdisciplinary approach.

Speakers: T. Troboukis, K. Kelly, P. Sermpezis, I. Dimitriadis, S. Karamanidis, A. Galanopoulos
