🚀 Day 2 of the #NAD2024 Conference 🚀 Today’s sessions explored crucial topics shaping the future of advertising, including influencer marketing, dark patterns, and AI. We were thrilled to participate in the panel "Responsible AI: Exploring Legal & Ethical Considerations," expertly moderated by NAD’s Katherine Armstrong. The discussion focused on key issues and risks when using AI, such as privacy & copyright issues, the proliferation of dark patterns, deceptive claims & imagery, and the reinforcement of stereotypes. To mitigate risks, panelists emphasized the need to: ✅ Properly testing the AI systems ✅ Using data to train models in a responsible way ✅ Ensuring good governance with interdisciplinary teams ✅ Always include human review of AI-generated ads People need to be able to #trust the advertising they see.

Today, the Unstereotype Alliance launched 'Inclusion = Income: The Business Case for Inclusive Advertising', at the UN Women Headquarters. We at ICAS were proud to be attending this event and being part of this important milestone. 💡 This report shows that inclusive and unstereotyped advertising isn't just morally right—it drives business growth. By embracing positive gender portrayals and broader inclusivity, brands can fuel both social progress and their bottom line. During the launch event, we also discussed the critical role of ad standards and self-regulation in combating harmful stereotypes. Ad standards are key—they provide clear rules, promote fairness, and level the playing field for all advertisers. A huge congratulations to the brilliant minds behind this work: 👏 Sara Denby, Elspeth I'Anson, Asha Shivaji, Melda Simon (she/her) from UN Women 👏 Professor Andrew Stephen and Dr. Felipe Thomaz from Oxford University's Saïd Business 👉 Read the full report here: https://oxsbs.link/3MLg9qS Let's keep pushing for advertising that represents everyone, empowers people everywhere, and adheres to responsible standards. #InclusionMatters #Unstereotype #InclusiveAdvertising #BusinessGrowth #AdStandards #Responsibility

The ICAS network is deeply saddened by the loss of Lucas Boudet, Director General of the European Advertising Standards Alliance (EASA). We are still grappling with the reality of his passing and trying to come to terms with this profound loss. Our President, Guy Parker said: "Like many, many others, I have lost a true friend and a wonderful work colleague in Lucas, who very sadly has died long before his time. I’m sure I speak for the entire ICAS network in saying my heart goes out to his family, who have lost a beloved husband and father. At tragic times like these, the strength of the European and, indeed, global ad self-regulation community really shows itself. Sibylle and I have been moved by the responses and condolences from friends around the world. It leaves me in no doubt that - despite our shocking loss - EASA and ICAS will continue to thrive, in no small part because of Lucas’ brilliant leadership over the last eight years" https://lnkd.in/e7f9BFY9
