What this book covers
Artificial intelligence transforms journalism with automated reporting, fact-checking, and personalized news, raising questions about bias and trust.
What makes this book distinct
AI is already writing thousands of news stories every day — financial results, sports reports, weather updates — without any human author. This book examines that reality, what it means for newsrooms, and whether AI threatens to accelerate or address the broader crisis in journalism.
