AI’s threat to journalism – and how humans can take back control

9th June 2023

Sara is a leading writer and editor with expertise in science and disruptive technologies; her work appears in publications such as Scientific AmericanThe New York Times, and National Geographic News. Sara is the author of the novel The Almond in the Apricot and children’s book, Leila’s Day at the Pool.

Sara details the threat that chatbots pose to journalism and the media, through scraping information from other sources without distinguishing between credible and uncredible sources, possibly spreading misinformation and feeding into the public’s distrust. Sara argues that although AI is presented as an impending storm that we do not have control over, humans are in control of their deployment and can choose a future where they work with these technologies instead of being replaced by them.
