Additionally, Text-to-Speech technology will be showcased, allowing for automated announcements and further enhancing the automation capabilities of the dira suite.
The new capabilities in dira showcase our commitment to integrating AI throughout our product range, says Michael Thielen, Vice President Consulting Services at CGI. As always though we are doing this while also paying close attention to the human factors in newsroom and radio processes, ensuring that any deployed AI is there for a compelling reason and augments existing workflows.
OpenMedia newsroom solution
A key innovation in the CGI OpenMedia Newsroom solution is the OpenMedia Intelligent Assistant, which offers AI-driven news production in a secure and fully GDPR-compliant manner.

We have several integrations to show live at IBC covering both, traditional and cloud-based production workflows, says Michael Pfitzner, Vice President Consulting Expert at CGI.
