NAB Session on AI in Video Streaming

Jan Ozer March 7, 2024 Encoding, Articles Leave a comment 979 Views

Like most encoding professionals, I’ve followed AI-related streaming advancements for the last few years. I’m presenting a session entitled “Beyond the Hype: A Critical Look at AI in Video Streaming” at Dan Rayburn’s Streaming Summit at NAB in Las Vegas on Monday, April 15, from 1:30 PM to 2:00 PM PST (room W110).

I will cover ingest to playback, including AI used in encoding, upscaling and pre-filtering, ABR packaging, stream delivery, and similar topics. I will include technologies that are or will be commercially available and internally used technologies that are important for broadcasters and streamers to know about.

I’ve spoken to several companies I will include in this session, but if you have an AI-driven feature, product, or service that fits this description and we haven’t spoken, please reach out at janozer@gmail.com. Sooner is better than later.

If you’re at NAB and can make the session, stop by and say hello.
