The Future is Now: A.I. in the Jewelry Industry
A Panel Moderated by Victoria Gomelsky
Join Victoria Gomelsky, editor-in-chief of the jewelry trade publication JCK and a frequent contributor to the New York Times, as she speaks to a handful of panelists familiar with A.I.’s applications in the jewelry trade about the hidden power of algorithms, and what to expect from A.I. in the near future.
Artificial intelligence is often talked about as a development that will affect the future of the jewelry industry. And while that’s true, it’s also true that A.I. has already changed the industry in meaningful ways, from the manner in which diamonds are graded to how jewelry — especially at the highest reaches of the luxury universe — is designed, manufactured, marketed, and distributed around the world. We speak to a handful of panelists familiar with A.I.’s applications in the jewelry trade about the hidden power of algorithms, and what to expect from A.I. in the near future. Featuring: Matthew Tratner, general manager and vice president, Sarine North America, and Casey Melvin, co-founder, The Future of Jewelry. Moderated by Victoria Gomelsky.
Time: 11:00 a.m.- 12:00 p.m. ET
