La influencia de la inteligencia artifical en el periodismo. Uso de herramientas y aplicaciones

Abstract

This qualitative research aims to analyze the influence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in journalism, and describe the use of some tools and applications. Artificial Intelligence is a technology with a great transforming capacity increasingly used as a work tool. This research attempts to understand what AI involves to develop the skills to understand, explain, and discuss its implications and possibilities in journalism. Initially, a review of scientific literature was used to explore what has been written on the subject, which is helpful in understanding and focusing on the topic of study. In addition, observation was applied, enabling the description of various applications and tools to elaborate on their use. The in-depth interviews provided an analysis from the experts' perspective regarding how Artificial Intelligence is employed in the implementation of systems for generating informative products based on data and algorithms. This includes automating the writing of texts with a novel narrative approach and facilitating the composition of journalistic pieces with predictable structures and formulas, which are sufficient for repetitive events of routine coverage.
