“The current economic climate and rapid pace of AI innovation can feel intense and overwhelming,” said Bryan Harris, Chief Technology Officer at SAS. “Our goal is to deliver cutting-edge AI capabilities that help organizations navigate the hype and disruption, make breakthroughs in problem solving, and gain a decision advantage.”  

Supporting global conservation with data and AI

The power of SAS Viya extends beyond improving business outcomes to boosting global conservation efforts. Fathom Science, a technology start-up building digital twins of the ocean, tapped SAS Viya to tackle an impractical problem that brought together the unlikely combination of ocean data, AI and a species in need of a lifeline. 

To validate their state-of-the-science whale location prediction model that helps prevent vessels from striking critically endangered North Atlantic right whales, Fathom Science used SAS Data Maker to create synthetic data with the characteristics of the actual shipping lane data to expand to 500,000 data points. With the data in hand, SAS Viya Workbench was used to develop models to calculate the probability of whales’ distance from shore. The result? Fathom Science gained statistical and machine learning validation of its whale location prediction model.

LG OLED X STEVEN HARRINGTON AT FRIEZE NEW YORK: WHERE VIBRANT POP ART MEETS THE TRANSPARENT OLED TV

Experience a Captivating Fusion of Art and Technology as Steven Harrington’s Whimsical Pop Art Comes to Life on LG’s Most Advanced TVs for 2025

SEOUL, South Korea, May 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — LG Electronics (LG) is partnering with iconic psychedelic pop artist and LA 2028 Olympics logo designer Steven Harrington at Frieze New York 2025 for the “Steven Harrington X LG OLED: Stop to Smell the Flowers” exhibition, showcasing the artist’s dynamically vivid artwork on LG’s latest and most premium OLED TVs. This collaboration highlights the visual excellence and vibrant colors of LG’s newest OLED lineup, including the transparent LG SIGNATURE OLED T – bringing the kinetic energy of Harrington’s California-inspired work to life for a truly immersive digital art experience.  

A playful exhibition space featuring vibrant artwork by Steven Harrington showcased on LG OLED screens.
A playful exhibition space featuring vibrant artwork by Steven Harrington showcased on LG OLED screens.

Known for his vibrant and immersive psychedelic pop art, Harrington joins forces with LG to demonstrate the strengths of OLED technology, including perfect blacks and vivid colors.* Harrington chose LG OLED as his digital canvas, citing the display’s ability to faithfully capture his artistic vision through exceptional color reproduction and design innovation. Together, they have created a whimsical exhibition at Frieze, highlighting the unique qualities of both the artist’s work and LG’s technology.

Visitors to the exhibition will meet Mello, one of Harrington’s signature characters who embodies the joy of everyday moments and creativity – brought to life on the advanced LG SIGNATURE OLED T transparent TV. Mello playfully waves to the audience against an opaque floral backdrop. As he invites the audience to come closer, the flowers fall away, revealing a transparent screen where they can step behind to take a picture with Mello. This dynamic transition between opaque and transparent screens offers a surreal, AR-like experience for exhibition-goers.

Set against a muted black and grey background, LG OLED screens amplify the brilliance of Harrington’s vibrant imagery. The exhibition features the new LG OLED evo M5, G5 and StanbyME 2 TVs, each displaying Harrington’s colorful works, with Mello seamlessly moving in and out of the screens. The M5 model highlights its wireless capabilities for a clutter-free setup, while the G5 boasts its exceptional self-lit technology for stunning visuals with deep blacks. The soon-to-be-launched StanbyME 2 is one of the most versatile and portable lifestyle TVs, adaptable for various settings – whether wall-mounted, propped up – or placed on a stand.

“This collaboration has completely expanded the way I think about making art,” said Harrington. “Being the first artist in the U.S. to work with LG’s transparent OLED TV gave me a chance to experiment in a whole new medium – where light, motion and color bring my characters to life in ways I’ve never seen before. It opened up a new dimension of vibrancy and storytelling that I’m excited to keep exploring.”

“LG’s OLED TV is the ultimate digital canvas, delivering rich blacks and maximizing depth and realism with precise color expression,” said Kate Oh, vice president of experiential marketing at LG Electronics. “We are excited to collaborate with bold artists like Steven Harrington, whose unique style aligns perfectly with LG OLED’s mission to inspire art and connect people through innovative digital experiences.”

Visitors to Frieze New York 2025 can experience LG’s latest OLED TVs and Harrington’s artwork from May 7 to 11 at The Shed.

Recognized by artists worldwide as the ultimate digital canvas, LG OLED continues to merge cutting-edge technology with contemporary art through various cultural initiatives. The Frieze New York exhibition marks the first showcase of the SIGNATURE OLED T since its US launch last December. This premium display offers stunning visuals with unparalleled clarity and seamlessly integrates into any environment. Following Frieze, LG will partner with Italian design brand Kartell to display the SIGNATURE OLED T at Kartell’s New York flagship store – building on their successful collaboration at CES 2025, where LG’s transparent TV was paired with Kartell’s iconic transparent furniture. Additionally, LG will work with Ayoung Kim, trailblazing digital artist and the third recipient of the LG Guggenheim Award, for an upcoming exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum.

For over a decade and a half, Cision’s State of the Media Report has offered unparalleled insight into the evolving dynamics between journalists and the PR professionals who partner with them. The 2025 report dives deeper than ever before, revealing regional differences across North America, EMEA, and APAC, and surfacing global themes that matter most in media today.

“This year’s findings reinforce just how important it is for PR teams to focus on precision, empathy, and adaptability,” said Jim Daxner, Chief Product Officer and Head of Strategy at Cision. “The media landscape is evolving rapidly—AI is transforming how content is created, audience behavior is more fragmented than ever, and journalists are navigating immense pressures. Our report gives PR professionals the roadmap to be trusted, valuable collaborators in that environment.”

Key Insights from the 2025 Report:

  • Relevance is Everything: 86% of journalists say they’ll immediately reject a pitch that isn’t aligned with their beat or audience—underscoring the need for PR teams to do their research and tailor every outreach.
  • Press Releases Still Reign: Despite an evolving media landscape, 72% of journalists still cite press releases as the most useful resource PR teams can offer. When paired with multimedia, impact increases significantly.
  • AI Adoption and Caution: Over half of journalists globally now use generative AI tools like ChatGPT, yet 72% worry about factual errors in AI-generated PR content. Transparency, accuracy, and human oversight remain essential.
  • Relationship-First PR: The majority of journalists (85%) say the best way to build a relationship is simple: introduce yourself via email—even without a story to pitch. Relationships still matter most in media relations.
  • Fragmented Social Media Use: LinkedIn remains the most-used platform globally, while region-specific platforms like WeChat (China), WhatsApp (EMEA), and BlueSky (North America) show the shifting nature of media engagement.

A Global Perspective That Drives Smarter PR

From APAC’s embrace of AI to North America’s continued focus on media trust and credibility, the 2025 report helps PR professionals adapt their strategies to regional realities while aligning with universal best practices.
