How do media leaders see the impact of generative AI on the global news industry? 🤖 This is the question at the heart of a new report by Jessica Cecil, based on 3 round tables held at Reuters Institute in 2023 📱Full report here reutersinstitute.politics.ox.ac.uk/2023-round-tab… 🧵Four learnings in thread


There was a very high willingness among participating news publishers to experiment with new GenAI tools, Jessica Cecil found in Reuters Institute workshops, at the same time, many news organisations are concerned that their interests do not align with those of tech platforms. More ⬇️

An essential discussion during #nightofideas at Institut français UK about combating disinformation. Fake news & manipulations of ideas often shape the geopolitical landscape and impact public opinion, so it’s a common challenge we have to tackle. Jessica Cecil a charlotte sector Carl Miller


Nearly missed this, but Jessica Cecil has produced a great summary of three roundtables with publishers, platforms & policy folks on (gen) AI and news held at Reuters Institute worth a read & the thread pulls out some of the key highlights (full disclosure: I was rapporteur for this)

🤯 Consecuencias ineludibles ¿Qué impacto tendrá la inteligencia artificial generativa en el sector periodístico? Ese es el eje de un informe de Jessica Cecil, basado en tres mesas redondas que organizamos con líderes de medios, plataformas y expertos.👇reutersinstitute.politics.ox.ac.uk/news/2023-roun…

Great to see Rasmus Kleis Nielsen and the Reuters Institute new initiative on AI and the news industry - with a shared understanding of the opportunities, the news industry can best navigate what is going to be a massive upheaval


This is very, very sad. Solidarity with Stanford Internet Observatory and very alarmed that top institutions conducting cutting-edge research on internet repression and algorithmic authoritarianism are being suppressed in the US. platformer.news/stanford-inter…

Very best analysis of news industry & sobering findings. More people avoiding news & when they do consume it are increasingly rejecting news organisations’ own site/apps, taking news from platform feeds instead. Quality journalism costs so how to pay for it? #DNR24 Rasmus Kleis Nielsen

Great to be part of a fascinating discussion QE II Academy with Anita LowensteinDent
