Here’s How Four Major Newsrooms Are Using AI

Major newsrooms are increasingly integrating AI into their operations.

1. New York Times: Offers AI training for journalists, uses internal AI tools like “Echo,” and allows AI for minor revisions while cautioning against drafting entire articles.

2. Quartz: Relies heavily on AI for generating earnings reports and blogs, but lacks strong human oversight, leading to potentially unreliable content.

3. AP: Utilizes AI for translation, research, and summarizing content but maintains human control over most blog posts.

4. Washington Post: Implements an AI-driven search tool, “Ask the Post AI,” to provide responses based on published content, encouraging users to verify information.

Caution is advised as reliance on AI can affect accuracy and creative input across these platforms.
