Webinar AI and Creative Jobs: Bulgarian insights from translators to designers

30 July | 10:30 11:15 Central European Time

In an era of rapidly advancing technologies, understanding their impact on creative professions is crucial. Artificial intelligence is one of the core technologies of digital transformation. It is expected to lead to job losses, initially in professions characterized by routine activities, but increasingly in creative professions. How do translators, graphic designers, and copywriters in Bulgaria perceive the rise of artificial intelligence? Do they feel threatened or see new opportunities?

Join our webinar that explores the dynamic intersection of artificial intelligence and the creative professions and will present the attitudes of translators, graphic designers and copywriters in Bulgaria towards artificial intelligence. Learn about the threats and changes digital technology is bringing to the creative industry and discover what the future holds for these professions.
