The Signal and the Noise in the Era of Journalism 5.0 – A Comparative Perspective of Journalistic Genres of Automated Content

Provider Technology Agency of the Czech Republic
Programme ÉTA
Project code TL05000057
Participants Faculty of Social Sciences Charles University (coordinator), Czech Technical University in Prague, Czech Radio

The aim of the project, which connects journalism and computer science, is a comparative perspective and reflection on journalistic genres after the advent of automated journalism and artificial intelligence journalism. There are fundamental changes in the field of news gathering (e.g. the issue of automation of journalistic sources to the factuality and accuracy of the information, suppression of imbalances in individual types of sources – dominance of male sources, etc.) and news production (e.g. automated creation of audiovisual content, including robotic announcer). Both entities in the field of journalism are viewed through the perspective of content recipients. The outputs of the project should then contribute to minimizing the adverse effects of technology on humans.
