 Towards Responsible AI in local Journalism

Keynote

A major challenge facing journalism today is coming to terms with the collapse of local news provision. Artificial intelligence (AI) applications along the news value chain offer opportunities for local media to better cope with the economic and societal challenges they face. However, these AI applications should be responsible, i.e. they should not only increase the economic efficiency of local media but also contribute to the local democratic role of media in society by adhering to professional values and ethical standards. To complicate the matter, local media have scarce resources, a factor which limits their ability to develop and implement responsible AI applications on their own. Therefore, specific intra-organizational, inter-organizational and societal conditions may facilitate local journalism’s transition into the age of AI.
