    Can regulated industries afford to miss the GenAI wave because of its potential risks? Regardless of the use case – from employee productivity to user information – the technology will need to be closely controlled and monitored. Tracing and auditing user interactions as well as LLM replies and measuring any drift in quality and reliability are absolute necessities.  In this session, we will examine the risks of GenAI in Content Delivery, from security and compliance to misinformation and liability, and will discuss what it takes to mitigate them and safely integrate GenAI into highly regulated sectors.

    In order to standardize and harmonize their content many companies - not only from the aerospace and defense industries - are thinking about using STE as a guideline for creating content.

    But, is writing documents according to STE as “simple” as the name of the standard suggests?  Not necessarily - because following more than 60 writing rules and only using a very restricted vocabulary is quite challenging. Therefore, some companies are only using the standard “half-heartedly”. Is this approach as effective as the original one? Does it lead to the same goals? Is there an alternative for content standardization?

    In this webinar Ursula Reuther will have a closer look at the standard itself and will address the above questions considering relevant aspects of corporate content creation.
