Journalism in the age of AI: How media companies are putting computers to use

Media companies are still trying to figure out how they will use artificial intelligence. Some publications are all in, like the tabloid newspaper Bild. Its owner, Axel Springer, wrote in a company email that "artificial intelligence has the potential to make independent journalism better than it ever was."

Earlier this month, Bild eliminated the jobs of editors, proofreaders, secretaries and photo editors and replaced them with computers. Springer also owns Die Welt, Fakt, Politico, Business Insider and other media brands. But apparently, they are not affected.

The tech news website CNET has suspended its program to write stories using AI after there were too many mistakes.
