How Will AI Change Local News in the Next Five Years?

Subbu Vincent, director of journalism and media ethics, quoted by Partnership on AI on Medium.com.

As physical newspapers close up shop and more journalism heads for the online world, what will the growing capabilities of AI mean for the industry? In particular, how can we ensure that these new tools are being used ethically and responsibly?

"Local newsrooms have to reframe their whole journalistic relationship to and with the multicultural communities who form not just their “audiences” but also participants in journalism as a civic process. This will allow local newsrooms to defend their journalism as methodologically robust (accuracy), democratically grounded, reliable and relevant," says Vincent.
