Description

If artificial intelligence scares you, you’re not alone.

Journalists in America and around the globe are grappling with how to use, but not abuse, the power of AI to write, edit, and even create entire news stories for a broad range of audiences. It is entirely possible that you have already read a news story that has been composed with the assistance of AI models. How do we make sense of this new technology within the landscape of journalism and democracy?

Tony Silvia, author of Artificial Intelligence in Journalism: Changing the News, will speak about the place of AI in our lives and poses important questions about its future.
