Practical AI for Local Media
Beyond the hype: how automation and AI and are helping local media today
The team at Media Voices (report authors) and United Robots (sponsors) started talking about creating this report back in the summer of 2022. Little did we know that by Christmas, the news industry would disrupt in discussions about the use of AI in newsrooms, at an intensity we’ve never seen before.
United Robots has worked in this space for eight years now and from our standpoint, this topic is about solving actual problems in local newsrooms like freeing up journalists’ time, expanding local coverage and providing more relevant content to each reader.
The lessons already learned by publishers and shared in this report is a perfect starting point.
