The boon & bane of artificial intelligence in times of war.
While the technology helps bad actors to create, disseminate & amply disinfo like never before, it also helps journalists to detect & analyse those narratives, automate tedious work & focus on the very human aspects of their job.
In this report for DWA, Diana Shahbazyan takes a look at how #newsrooms in #Ukraine have been affected & supported by modern #AI tools since Russia's full invasion in 2022:

This article from @columjournreview.bsky.social shows how journos use AI in their everyday reporting (and their many concerns!):
All valuable perspectives, but what I would like to see is #newsrooms thinking about new PRODUCTS that help readers interact with reporting in novel ways … that the big chatbots can't do. 🤔
This is what I am hoping to hear at #ProtocolsForPublishers next month

Today I actually made a few sessions at the 4th FediForum.
Two were about journalism.
The First was how newsrooms use or rather don’t quite use the Fediverse. Not yet at least. And how it’s all about metrics and tracking to make sure the effort is worth the squeeze. It was organized by Ben Werdmuller from ProPublica.
The second was about how we can get more journalists and newsrooms to use the Fediverse instead of Twitter. This was organized by by Dan Gillmor.
Both were very good discussions and about a topic/industry that I’m very passionate about.
The other one, that I made, was about how to make finding people and accounts easier on a decentralized web. Above my pay grade a bit, but very interesting. It was with Andy Piper and his colleague from Mastodon Development.
And the last one was about how to monetize our feeds. Check out Sub.Club! It’s pretty slick!
Tomorrow is the last day. Can’t wait!

No #NewstodonFriday from us this week because, frankly, we're going on vacation soon and have stacks of other stuff to do. In its stead, we're recommending this @FediFollows' thread below, which will help you find fantastic news organizations to follow. Share a newsroom's fedi handle in the comments, or a favorite story you've discovered here, and we'll boost it.

"…#newsrooms are going to disappear. Changes to #socialmedia and the advent of #generativeAI threaten their businesses and the impact of their work. They need to own their online presences outright and build direct relationships with their communities—and they need to do it now.
Experimentation & innovation are key. Newsrooms can discover practical ways to navigate these challenges by testing new strategies, technologies & mindsets."

#AI #GenerativeAI #Newsrooms #Journalism #Media #News: "As soon as we started doing interviews, my suspicions were confirmed: a lot of these guidelines were made from the top down. They were made individually by an editor-in-chief or sometimes by parent companies, without any consultation of journalists.
How can we create guidelines from the bottom up? How can we create guidelines involving journalists and all the stakeholders involved in news production? It shouldn’t surprise us that journalists are still making decisions based on their gut feeling. Even with all of these guidelines in place, journalists are still going to make decisions based on what they and their community feel it’s important.
If you impose guidelines from the top down, they are not going to be very effective because journalism is based on gut feeling. So we need to encourage newsrooms to have a conversation with their journalists and ask them about how these technologies should be put in place."

#AI #GenerativeAI #Journalism #Media #News #Newsrooms: "To empower journalists and editors with the ability to efficiently and effectively evaluate and select tools to adopt into their practice, we must develop AI evaluation strategies that are both relevant to the journalism context, and adaptable to support evaluation across different types of newsrooms and practices.
Here we propose a framework to help guide evaluations of the uses of AI tools in journalism. Our framework suggests that tools be evaluated along three axes: (1) the quality of AI model outputs, based on editorial interests and goals (2) quality of interaction with AI applications, based on needs and work processes of users, and (3) ethical alignment, based on professional values and newsroom standards. We also propose that practitioners and researchers collaborate on the development of standards to evaluate these aspects of AI in the newsroom." https://generative-ai-newsroom.com/blueprints-for-evaluating-ai-in-journalism-e702c9e8c4f3

"With Jezebel’s death, readers in search of #feminist content have few sites to which to turn—thankfully, DAME is still standing, though we are fighting every day to be here for you all. There are nonprofit women-focused #newsrooms & old-school print magazines, but those tend to prioritize middle-of-the-road coverage, not incendiary commentary on the hypocrisies & indignities of the day.

#CBS has #sifted through over 1,000 videos of #IsraelHamas #war and only 10% are usable, president and CEO of #CBSNews Wendy McMahon told Axios' Sara Fischer. Why it matters: The Hamas attack in Israel shows how #deepfakes and #misinformation will flow into #newsrooms "at a level of sophistication that will be staggering," McMahon said onstage in New York today. https://www.axios.com/2023/10/12/mcmahon-misinformation-cbs-deep-fakes-bfd #misinformation #lies #facts #journalism #news #socialmedia

Earlier this week, I discussed how establishing a commons of tightly-focused local newsrooms would strengthen democracy and provide much-needed support for underserved communities. Enter Press Forward, which is providing half a billion dollars to do just that. https://werd.io/2023/press-forward-brings-much-needed-support-for-local-news
