“…La aplicación de la IA no solo se limita a la prensa escrita o a las noticias automatizadas, sino que se ha extendido a todos los apartados del newsmaking (Túñez, Toural y Frazão, 2020). Se emplea en la mayoría de procesos de la cadena de producción periodística, tanto en la generación de alertas, notificaciones y recomendaciones como en la asistencia a los informadores en la verificación, comercialización, y, principalmente, en la automatización inteligente del flujo de trabajo para la creación de historias y cobertura en directo de acontecimientos (Rojas-Torrijos, 2018).…”

La proliferación de noticias falsas en el renovado contexto digital se erige como uno de los problemas centrales a los que se enfrentan los medios de comunicación. Se ha comprobado que, para atajar la desinformación, no basta con la aplicación de soluciones tecnológicas, ya que se trata de una cuestión estructural que debe ser contenida desde la raíz: la alfabetización mediática desde la juventud para el desarrollo de un pensamiento crítico. Con todo, el uso de herramientas basadas en la automatización o la inteligencia artificial (IA) simplifica la tarea de verificación de contenidos y de rastreo de falsedades, permitiendo un análisis inmediato de grandes volúmenes de información. En el caso concreto de las radiotelevisiones públicas europeas, las 8 entrevistas en profundidad realizadas para el presente estudio a responsables de innovación e inteligencia artificial en radiotelevisiones públicas revelan que ya han comenzado a implementar estas soluciones en sus procesos de producción, lo que supone un paso adelante hacia una mitigación efectiva de la desinformación.

“…Journalism operates within these paradigms of human selection of sources to maintain its power boundaries that are aligned with fellow institutions (Perloff, 2019). At the same time, “robot journalism” technologies have been adopted by news outlets to replace humans as news economic models decline (Túñez-López, Toural-Bran, & Frazao-Nogueira, 2020) and to “do more with less.” Simultaniously, technologies emerge amid the vast expanse of news deserts across the globe (e.g. Magasic & Hess, 2021), while journalists are said to re-focus on depth reporting.…”

This essay complicates interpretations of digital architectures in online journalism production in terms of journalistic interlopers and intralopers during an age of increased influence of technologists on online news development. While much normative scholarship revolves around social media, metrics, algorithms, artificial intelligence, VR, and other forms of digital innovation applied to journalism, the essay argues that such work must not focus merely on the actions of today's tech-savvy journalism but should interrogate social and cultural relationships at the center of journalistic production so not to as become distracted away from the embedded practices of ideological incorporation that shapes media messages and reproduces inequalities through what and how journalism covers. In the future, as we approach a notion of the Metaverse, scholars must interrogate the long-standing embedding of elite ideologies into the news as journalists collaborate with technologists (or as journalists become technologists), interact (and re-interact) with elite ideologies at accelerating rates in networked societies, and move into new digital realms we have not yet imagined.

“…It is a silent process that is increasingly oriented to be executed with strong (or general) AI, adjusting the machine to imitate the way humans process information and even to be able to react and provide solutions. (Túñez, Toural & Frazão, 2020).…”

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the most promising innovation frameworks with the potential to transform our relationship with technology. Particularly in journalism, AI is beginning to make its way transversally into the news production process and into the structure and functioning of the media. This article aims to anticipate how AI will impact on the Spanish media ecosystem and explain the medium-term transformations that are already being felt. The research approach is of an exploratory and descriptive nature, with a qualitative methodology based on Delphi-like in-depth interviews, encompassing an intentional sample of academic representatives, relevant associations and leading companies in the field of technology and communication. The results point out that AI will allow the extension of the current automated text news to audio and video on demand, it will favour that news can have a non-linear unstructured consumption, it will promote changes in the business model through new ways of relating with the audience and distribution of the product. Also, variations in the professional profile with a less operative journalist who will avoid routines –even of personal nature– that can be imitated by the machine and increase its cognitive contribution to the news production.
