英国的信息传播领域始终沿着创新与保守交织的路径发展。2018~2019年,在这个发明电报、邮政、人工智能等技术的国家,一方面,每名英国人仍然寄出150封传统信件;另一方面,英国城乡正在向超快速宽带与5G移动连接迈进。一方面,公共广播服务传统持续走强,尤其是BBC不论在提供新闻和娱乐还是投入创新方面,依然是名副其实的“主流媒体”;另一方面,国际平台Facebook和Youtube则在英国市场上实现用户范围最广、盈利最多,Netflix、AmazonPrimeVideo等美国制作并投放国际市场的产品也在改变着英国人的媒介消费习惯。而在新一轮人工智能的研发中,英国提出“数据不再为王、模型为王”。
<<The UK Media industry is in general equally conservative and innovative. In the country where telegraph,postal service,AI and other world-changing ICTs were invented,5G is now covering 40 most populated cities and towns,meanwhile an average British still sent 150 postal letters during the year 2018-2019. The tradition of British public broadcasting service still played strong. In particular,BBC was still “mainstream media” both in terms of providing news and entertainment and investing into innovations. On the other hand,international platforms such as Facebook and Youtube achieved the biggest shares of consumer market and revenues in the UK. Netflix,Amazon Prime Video and other American made and internationally distributed platforms and products are also changing the British media consuming habits. In the field of AI,Britain is developing what it calls the world’s first “principled” AI decision-making platform on which data isn’t king. The model is.
