Presentation: Building a ‘digital first’ infrastructure
About the presentation
This talk provides insights to building a modern digital first infrastructure that is based on three content pillars: delivery, access, and accuracy. Then, Lori will discuss four ‘digital first’ concepts that are key to transforming publishing environments to the modern era: optimised images, publishing pipeline, AI rags and agents, and finally web-hosted help. As a common thread throughout, together we’ll discuss how AI can help us get there.
This session is suitable for anyone interested in modern content development and delivery
About the presenter
Dr Lori Eide
Lori has been a technical communicator in the high-tech industry for over 30 years. She moved to Seattle in the 90s to attend the University of Washington, and graduated at a time when startups were all the rage and Microsoft was still in its infancy. After the first software company she worked at, Visio, was purchased by Microsoft, she made the bold move to contracting and has worked for many companies ever since, including Microsoft, Hewlett Packard, Credit Karma, and most recently Waters Biomedical Engineering. As a senior content developer with over 30 years of experience, she plans on staying at Waters to close out her career and eventually retire.
