Generative AI and Journalism: Mapping the Risk Landscape
Description
This research report explores how the growing use of generative AI across society poses risks for journalism as an industry, an institution, a practice and a product; for the wider information commons to which it contributes; and ultimately for people and society. Qualitative insights from interviews and a survey with a range of experts suggest that GenAI is amplifying many pre-existing long-standing challenges (e.g. business model and disruption, problematic business practices, information disorder, trust destabilisation). There was a strong appetite for intervention to mitigate such risks (e.g. by demanding greater transparency from AI companies, developing new professional and public literacies, devising new standards and strengthening public policy responses and funding).
