Robots will never replace journalists

Artificial intelligence was the keyword at this year’s New Practices in Journalism conference. Lisa Gibbs, AI Newsroom Lead at the Associated Press, answered our questions on the promise and the risks linked to robot journalism. For Gibbs, artificial intelligence should be welcomed as a means for journalists to bypass routine daily tasks, affording them more time to focus on the mission of their field: informing the world. Watch the video.

Other topics on the 2018 conference agenda included pioneering use of blockchain, analytics, and open source software in the industry, advertising journalism, “The CMS War”, and “the next content revolution”. Discover the programme.
