The broadcasting landscape in January 2026 is hitting a massive friction point: we are moving AI out of the “test phase” and directly into live production, but the industry is nowhere near ready for the fallout. The most talked-about issue right now isn’t just the tech itself, it’s the Public Trust Crisis. As synthetic media […]
After 9 years of an intense and transformative journey with AIBD, it’s time to turn the page. Partnering with 26 governments and 100+ broadcasters to deliver 137 trainings was more than a career highlight, it was a masterclass in how media architecture defines the soul of our societies. To the AIBD Secretariat, Members & U.N […]
Most online content creators still craft content for an outdated web structure, assuming readers move smoothly from beginning to end. In reality, both humans and AI now consume information in fragments, pulling pieces rather than reading start to finish. Today, content is often pulled apart before anyone reads it.

written by Nabeel Tirmazi When my son started his A-Levels this year, I persuaded him to chose Law with Economics and Business, a bold choice for someone who’d never read a legal text before.

In Asia-Pacific, these threats are magnified for those working in disaster zones, conflict areas, and politically sensitive environments, often with little or no […]
A century of life, and what a life it’s been! Tun Mahathir isn’t just Malaysia’s longest-serving Prime Minister, he’s a symbol of resilience, intellect, and vision on the global stage. Loved by many for his sharp wit and fearless ideas, he’s been a guiding figure not only for Malaysians but also for leaders across the […]

A motivational speaker might fall flat in a tech demo, while a data-driven analyst might feel awkward in a wedding toast.
