Nieman Lab
The Nieman Journalism Lab is dedicated to guiding journalism as it navigates the challenges of the digital age. The rise of the Internet has led to an explosion of news and information, but it has also disrupted the traditional business models that have supported quality journalism for many years. Journalists nationwide are facing job losses or adapting to a dramatically different online landscape. Our goal is to showcase innovative approaches and understand what leads to their success or failure. We aim to uncover valuable ideas that others can adopt. We want to assist reporters and editors as they embrace their online roles, help established news organizations find ways to thrive, and support the new startups that may either enhance or replace them. We maintain a positive outlook. While we don't claim to have all the solutions, we are connected to many insightful individuals. Our readers play a crucial role in this exchange, and we encourage your input to make the Lab a space for collaborative idea-sharing. We invite you to share what’s happening in your area or what you believe should be happening. We hope you find value in our work and join us in this ongoing conversation.

As journalists around the world experiment with artificial intelligence, many newsrooms have common, often audience-facing, ideas for what to try. They range from letting readers talk to chatbots trained on reporting, to turning written stories into audio, creating story summaries and, infamously, generating entire articles using AI — a use case vehemently rejected by many journalists.
