Commercial Radio and Audio CEO Lizzie Young speaks at WorldDAB Automotive 2026. Read James Careless’ additional WorldDAB Automotive 2026 coverage of Radio France CEO Sibyle Veil’s keynote speech and research firm Fifty5Blue’s recent car audio findings. The popularity of electric vehicles is putting radio’s foothold in the car at risk. Those were the words of Lizzie Young, the CEO of Commercial Radio and Audio, the association representing Australia’s major commercial radio networks. Young spoke at WorldDAB Automotive 2026 on June 11, in Frankfurt, Germany. WorldDAB is the global body that promotes the DAB/DAB+ digital radio standard. She described EV penetration in Australia as a sudden escalation. The market is being driven by skyrocketing fuel costs, Young explained, which are in turn exacerbated by ongoing geopolitical conflicts. Those factors have pushed Australian EV adoption to record highs over the last year, she explained. “For the first month ever in May, an electric vehicle was the number one selling car in Australia,” Young said. In such a rapidly changing environment, Commercial Radio and Audio said it is aggressively fighting to ensure a permanent broadcast presence across every incoming dashboard in Australia. Chief among these unique challenges, Young said, is the country’s vast size, which requires a hybrid approach incorporating AM, FM, DAB+ and streaming audio to cover it all. Nationwide radio coverage is necessary to ensure public safety, she explained. “It is critical because of that, and the fact that many Australians move away from these climate disasters in their vehicles, that we have robust emergency broadcasting capabilities in the car,” she emphasized. To ensure that radio retains its dashboard dominance, Australian radio partners have invested heavily in a rebuilt, unified mobile app, the RadioApp, that features both commercial and public broadcasters. Additionally, CRA spent the past year ensuring radio is discoverable on emerging platforms by forging strategic partnerships with DTS AutoStage, RadioPlayer and Visteon. The advocacy group is also pushing the Australian government to include radio in its smart speaker legislation. “We were told that we would have some legislation to review in March and that has now been pushed out for some very valid reasons about some very other significant issues,” Young said. “But we are confident that we will have legislation being drafted in the second half of this year.” Ultimately, Australian broadcasters are not expecting automakers or politicians to simply hand them a legacy safety net. “We really see… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 days ago - The Story of Radio Tel Aviv’s Odelia AI
Author Yaara Marchiano Whether you come from the BBC, iHeartMedia or a small local station in Israel, the radio industry has been struggling in recent years. Rapid technological change, the fight for consumer attention, the rise of streaming services, digital radio and the simple fact that fewer people are listening, have all created significant pressure on the medium we love so much. Over the past year, I’ve been working with Radio Tel Aviv to integrate AI as part of a broader effort to refresh the station. This includes updating their workflows as well as rethinking the programming schedule. Their sales team now uses AI tools to write client briefs, support promo creation and help them generate content and scripts. In addition, we decided to take this work a step further and apply it in practice by creating our own artificial intelligence radio host. Our host is built on a carefully designed voice model and language model that we shaped with great precision. And that’s how we created Odelia AI. Marketing image for Odelia AI Odelia AI is the first autonomous radio host in Israel. For the past six months, she has accompanied the station listeners on their way home or at work every day (!) from 2 to 4 p.m. She can present music, deliver traffic updates and even tell jokes, mostly at her own expense (though it’s in Hebrew you can check her out here). “AI.O,” Odelia’s show, aired in a prime slot and got some really positive attention from listeners, PR and even new brands that want to sponsor the show because of the innovative vibe it brings. The first stage in creating Odelia’s character began with an in-depth research phase, examining case studies and technologies from around the world. We took a close look at both the successes and the failures to understand what truly works and what to avoid — from “Tai” in Australia, who served as a local radio host for six months without informing the listeners she was not a real person, to “Ashley AI” in Portland, modeled after the station’s star Ashley Elzinga from 95.5 FM, who became a hit with listeners and absolute lifesaver for the real Ashley that could finally be free in the afternoons and spend time with her kids. We interviewed the people involved, gathered insights, and collected practical advice about both the content strategies and the technologies they… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 days ago - Cure for certain cancers is ‘realistic’ goal in next decade, pharma lead say...
A cure for cancer could be on the horizon in the next decade, according to experts.During the WSJ Leadership Institute CEO Summit in London last week, Johnson & Johnson Chairman and CEO Joaquin Duato reflected on the pharmaceutical company’s projections on the future of cancer treatment.In the next 10 years, the goal is to "try to eliminate cancer," Duato shared.NEW CANCER VACCINE DELIVERS STUNNING RESULT AGAINST ONE OF THE DEADLIEST SKIN CANCERS"That’s a high goal, and we are already making significant progress in certain cancers," he said.Duato used multiple myeloma as an example, noting that the life expectancy is currently 10 years, when it was previously "only single years.""We have treatments now that utilize your own immune system to attack the cancer," he said at the summit. "For patients who were already going into hospice, so they didn’t have any other alternative, they are [at] more than five years, with a single administration, in remission. That [is] spectacular."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTER"When patients see that, they cannot believe that because they have been coming to the hospital every week [for] a decade, having multiple therapies."According to Duato, Johnson & Johnson is working to understand the biology of cancer growth and to formulate new technologies to address it."It’s realistic to believe that we are going to cure certain cancers, and some others we’re going to turn into chronic diseases," he predicted.CLICK HERE FOR MORE HEALTH STORIES"Cancer is an important thing – I cannot think about anybody who has not been touched by cancer," he went on. "But there are many other opportunities for us to actually advance science, to address very important social problems."Duato called out dementia as another "important problem" in need of a solution.He predicted that life expectancy, which has risen steadily over the past century, will continue to increase as longevity technologies and solutions advance, improving quality of life along the way.Duato commented that J&J has been optimistic about the role artificial intelligence will play in the future of healthcare, calling it a "force multiplier."Fox News senior medical analyst Dr. Marc Siegel agreed with Duato's outlook on the future of cancer care, noting that certain cancers will turn into chronic diseases while others will find outright cures."Advances [will be] based on the use of AI to help guide targeted treatments with expanding knowledge of cancer mutations and how to target them," he predicted, speaking… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 days ago - Fans Think Zendaya’s Red Carpet Dress Contains An Easter Egg About New ...The actor’s dress for the Madrid premiere of Marvel’s "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" featured an interesting detail.
