Have Journalists Skipped the Ethics Conversation When It Comes to Using AI?

1 month ago | magdalene.co | Angela Misri

Artificial intelligence (AI) is being used in journalistic work for everything from transcribing interviews and translating articles to writing and publishing local weather, economic reports and water quality stories. It’s even being used to identify story ideas from the minutes of municipal council meetings in cases where time-strapped reporters don’t have time to do so.
