Newsrooms Are (Not) Using AI Responsibly
- OpenAI has formed partnerships with several publishers for licensing and AI usage within the newsroom; other companies are seeking the help of AI too, such as Bloomberg who is partnering with AppliedXL for the same purpose.
- Around 90% of newsrooms surveyed by JournalismAI stated they use AI mostly for fact-checking and generating analyses, leaving the human touch to be the end result.
- The Associated Press was possibly the first news organisation to use AI tools at scale back in 2013; as such the idea of AI usage to streamline journalism processes is changing as the technology evolves and improves.
- Recent licensing deals such as OpenAI and Meredith help protect both parties legally as highlighted by previous copyright infringement lawsuits filed by publishers like The New York Times.
- AI tools can work by focusing on highly specific domains combined with niche and accurate datasets.
- Sports Illustrated's AI-generated content under fake names and bios serves as a reminder of how a news organisation can use AI irresponsibly.
- A proper conversation taking place around AI in journalism could help separate the responsible use of AI in newsrooms from the irresponsible use of AI.
- Using AI ethically to promote good journalism practices and reporting could foster a new era of journalism with new types of stories and analyses, predicts AppliedXL CEO Francesco Marconi.
