SEOUL, December 12 (AJP) - A global forum focusing on the evolving role of artificial intelligence (AI) in communication is set to kick off in Istanbul on Friday. 

Organized by Türkiye's Directorate of Communications, the International Strategic Communication Forum, also known as Stratcom Summit, will bring together government officials, academics, and industry leaders to discuss the latest AI trends, challenges, and transformative potential in communication.

Over 3,000 guests from 30 countries are expected to participate in the two-day event. The forum aims to foster international collaboration and knowledge sharing on the strategic use of AI in communication.

Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz and the Presidency's Head of Communications Fahrettin Altun are set to deliver opening remarks.
