“…In addition, most of the 4IR news coverage is also associated with industry products, initiatives or announcements, which outpace academic studies and scientific reports. This finding is in line with previous studies conducted in specific technological megatrends, such as AI (Brennen et al, 2018; Vergeer, 2020).…”

In recent years, a Fourth Industrial Revolution emerged in public discourse as a narrative of exceptional societal disruption. At the core of this conceptual construct, led by the World Economic Forum, rests a sociotechnical imaginary of future essentialism, based on the revolutionary potential of digital, biological and physical innovations. This article addresses the lack of studies assessing the dynamics between the institutionalisation and the public performance of the Fourth Industrial Revolution concept through news media. We present the results of a quantitative content analysis of how the topic has been covered (frames, sources, tone) by the Portuguese national circulation press (2013–2020). This exploratory case study informs a proposal for an epistemic and methodological articulation between the theoretical frameworks of sociotechnical imaginaries and of media framing.

“…Here are some general observations from these studies. Public perceptions of AI are shaped by the perspectives and topics that journalists choose to report (Vergeer 2020), and the depth of information provided on AI (for instance, on the ethical issues of AI) (Ouchchy et al 2020). The type of newspaper affects AI reporting.…”

“…The type of newspaper affects AI reporting. Research shows that in the Netherlands, popular newspapers are more negative about AI, while national newspapers publish more on AI than regional or religious newspapers do (Vergeer 2020). News coverage on AI is in some countries affected by right-leaning (focus on economics and geopolitics) or left-leaning political agendas of newspapers (ethics and discrimination) (Brennen et al 2018).…”

China communicates strategic narratives about artificial intelligence (AI) in digital media productions to create a shared meaning about its actions and its image in the global race to develop AI. Building upon the literature in emotions and strategic narratives, this study seeks to clarify which emotions are discursively used in China’s international AI narratives, and their function and significance. Specifically, the study investigates emotion discourses in AI-focused videos disseminated on China’s international broadcasting (CGTN YouTube channel). The analysis reveals that pride, hope and fear discourses have multiple functions in China’s international AI narratives on CGTN. Hope is used to represent China as a key competitor in the global AI race, who is catching up to the US. China uses pride to showcase its advances in AI applications, to highlight its transformation of traditional industries, and to identity itself as equal to the US. Fear is used to frame US’s perception of China’s AI developments, to suggest their crisis of confidence, but also to refute the “China threat”. Additionally, the fear discourse is used to deliberate anticipated risks, particularly on job loss and data privacy. These emotion discourses forge China’s identity as a future global AI power. The paper then discusses how these findings contribute to key debates about Chinese discourse and media strategy.

This literature review focuses on the importance of prioritizing personal data security in insurance organizations in the context of Web 2.0 and the fourth industrial revolution. With the increasing use of digital transactions and data sharing, there is a need for improved data security postures to mitigate vulnerability issues. Personal data is a valuable asset that is targeted by malicious individuals, which highlights the importance of establishing proactive and trustworthy security frameworks. The study evaluates the security threats associated with the collection, processing, storage, and retention of personal data in insurance organizations, and examines the legal and technical provisions for its protection. Through an analytical review methodology, this paper highlights the urgent need to establish robust data security measures to ensure that personal data is secure when held in the custody of insurance organizations and personal management information systems.
