Written by BAM Team | October 21, 2022 at 10:47 PM

Here's what we covered.

On October 20 we invited Cade Metz of The New York Times and Sharon Goldman of VentureBeat to join our monthly Ask Media Anything. We talked about the future of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), AI bias and how companies should position their news related to AI & ML technologies to attract interest from journalists.

Here are some of the top AMA tweets and words of advice from our panelists. If you want the full scoop, check out the recording of the webinar by clicking here.

From Cade Metz of The New York Times

Live from our #askmediaanything: "There are companies that claim to do something, but I won’t write about a company that announces themselves. I want to see what’s happening. Invite me to the test area." - @CadeMetz of @nytimes

Live from our #askmediaanything: "What’s happening in the future vs. what is happening now can get blended." - @CadeMetz of @nytimes

Live from our #askmediaanything: "I will cover a Series A story if there is an inflection point. Lots of companies pitch with a “buzzword” but there are only few that have something to tell there." - @CadeMetz of @nytimes

From Sharon Goldman of VentureBeat

Live from our #askmediaanything: "I look at previous coverage of the company and evaluate how they talk about themselves. When I talk to people, I can get a real feel of who they are in their landscape." - @sharongoldman of @venturebeat

Live from our #askmediaanything: "I’m not relying on a single press release, I want to continue to learn and have those conversations that lead to a trend or story." - @sharongoldman of @venturebeat

Live from our #askmediaanything: "A pitch should pique my interest with the story angle, I don’t focus solely on funding. Tell me where things are going with AI with an enterprise angle and tie it into what’s trending." - @sharongoldman of @venturebeat
