📍 DC11.218 et sur Teams
Drawing from recent research in Singapore and across Asia, this presentation unpacks the complex relationship between journalism and generative AI. It highlights the contrasting views of journalists and news organizations—where journalists worry about quality and ethics, while media companies focus on efficiency and cost. The talk also explores how AI logics often clash with journalistic values, and concludes with insights into audience perceptions, showing that while readers accept AI-generated news, it remains unclear whether this reflects genuine receptiveness or mere indifference. The talk invites reflection on what journalism gains—or loses—in the age of artificial intelligence.
