From deep fake videos to robot journalism – editorial teams have had to deal with the digitalization of their profession and AI for a long time. What is new, however, is the speed at which new innovations are finding their way into our day-to-day work. AI is therefore a much-discussed topic in journalism, bringing with it both advantages and challenges. We take a closer look at what AI in journalism is, what use cases already exist in the industry, how editorial teams can best deal with it and where the journey with artificial intelligence can take us.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”90px” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#f7f7f7″ scene_position=”center” top_padding=”3%” constrain_group_1=”yes” bottom_padding=”3%” top_padding_tablet=”6%” constrain_group_3=”yes” bottom_padding_tablet=”6%” top_padding_phone=”20%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” id=”about” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=”” gradient_type=”default”][vc_column column_padding=”padding-2-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”top-bottom” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”2\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n

Definition: What actually is artificial intelligence<\/em>?<\/h2>\n[\/nectar_highlighted_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”10″][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]A single definition for AI is not so easy, as it is a constantly evolving field of research and the definitions change regularly. When asked \u2018What is AI?\u2019, many people naturally think of \u2018intelligent\u2019. And indeed: AI definitely has to do with intelligent behaviour, but less with real \u2018thinking\u2019. Rather, AI is a field of research centred around systems that are designed to observe, learn and act like humans. Machines are being developed that can make independent decisions based on extensive data and therefore behave intelligently. There is \u2018strong AI\u2019 as well as \u2018weak AI\u2019 – and the latter in particular is intended to support us humans and master individual skills. <\/p>\n

One area of AI is becoming particularly important for the media industry: machine learning. Using algorithms, mathematical equations and statistics, AI systems learn to recognise certain patterns from data, use them as a basis for making forecasts and recommendations and also learn to improve themselves. <\/p>\n

In particular, the use of natural language processing (NLP), prediction and generation are important tools for processes in media production. Such technologies from the field of machine learning can automate and standardise a variety of processes in editorial offices and newsrooms<\/a>, from content research to production and publication.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#000000″ bg_image=”3281″ bg_position=”left top” background_image_loading=”default” bg_repeat=”no-repeat” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”70″ bottom_padding=”70″ text_color=”light” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” color_overlay=”#000000″ color_overlay_2=”#168cdb” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ overlay_strength=”0.8″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=”” gradient_type=”default”][vc_column column_padding=”padding-5-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”right” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”center” phone_text_alignment=”center” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” gradient_type=”default” column_padding_type=”default”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default” offset=”vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs”]

buzzword. It refers precisely to the algorithms that are used to create, i.e. generate, new content such as text, audio, code or images. ChatGPT is a good example of this: it generates new texts in a kind of chat. Unlike previous chatbots, ChatGPT’s responses are not pre-scripted, but the AI responds in a targeted manner to the questions or prompts<\/a> it is asked.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”rgba(0,187,255,0.1)” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”5%” constrain_group_1=”yes” bottom_padding=”5%” top_padding_tablet=”6%” constrain_group_3=”yes” bottom_padding_tablet=”6%” top_padding_phone=”20%” constrain_group_5=”yes” bottom_padding_phone=”20%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” id=”roboter” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=”” gradient_type=”default”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/6″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_icon icon_family=”iconsmind” icon_style=”soft-bg” icon_color_type=”color_scheme” icon_color=”Accent-Color” icon_padding=”15px” pointer_events=”all” icon_iconsmind=”iconsmind-Robot” icon_size=”40″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” left_margin=”-60″ left_margin_tablet=”0″ left_margin_phone=”0″ column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”5\/6″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_custom_heading text=”AI in journalism is not new: Robot journalism” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:42|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”25″][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]Language models already existed long before ChatGPT, whose language model was trained with a large number of texts from the internet, made the rounds.
