PA Editor: Robots write for manuscripts to get more thinking time for people

Electronic enthusiasts eight o'clock: the finished product of robot writing is a combination of human intelligence, artificial intelligence and data. First, human journalists create a very detailed news template, such as criminal cases, medical and unemployment rates, and then the robot fills in the blanks based on specific numbers and facts. This model has been used for several years.

Google (microblogging) recently set up a digital news fund and spent more than $800,000 on a robotic writing project called PressAssociaTIon (PA) Media, which will be used to support journalism in the UK and Ireland.

The PA company will also work with startup UrbsMedia to produce 30,000 manuscripts per month with the help of artificial intelligence.

Robot writing began in 2014, when the Los Angeles Times (LosAngelesTImes) used artificial intelligence technology to report news. Subsequently, the Associated Press partnered with AutomatedInsights, a company that provides automated writing services, to allow robots to read financial reports and then automatically generate financial news that favors data analysis in accordance with the pre-defined framework of the editor.

Specifically, the finished product of the robot writing is a combination of human intelligence, artificial intelligence and data. First, human journalists create a very detailed news template, such as criminal cases, medical and unemployment rates, and then the robot fills in the blanks based on specific numbers and facts. This model has been used for several years.

Like robots instead of a lot of work, the debate over robot writing is whether humans will be replaced? I recently asked Yann LeCun, director of the Facebook Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, will artificial intelligence replace the work of journalists? Professor LeCun humorously replies: "It may replace the work of some poor journalists."

In the view of PA editor-in-chief Peter Clifton, writing robots are unlikely to replace journalists' work. They are just to free journalists from monotonous and repetitive tasks, and to focus on things that are more complex and require human thinking. Reduce the cost of writing.

This also means that human journalists with experience and technology still play a supporting role in the entire news industry. The emergence of robots can free these senior journalists from the existing routine work to do more meaningful things.

Of course, there are also voices against the writing of artificial intelligence. TIm Dawson, president of the British Journalists Association, said that the most important problem in the world's news industry is the lack of factual reports. It is obviously impossible for robots to replace humans to complete this part of the work. Instead, he believes that the emergence of robots will allow news organizations to lay off employees more dramatically.

Most of the journalism industry contacts that the author has contacted say that news is becoming more and more popular. In this context, consumers need more in-depth and quality content. They are looking forward to reading manuscripts with analysis and opinions. And these abilities exist only in insightful human journalists.

A recent study by a University of London professor, Neil Thurman, comparing human journalists and robotic journalists, the quality of writing by robotic journalists is generally below average. The report suggests that robots can be used for reports of breaking news facts, followed by deep exploration and expansion by human reporters.

However, there have been cases where robot reporters have been found to have faked news facts. For example, last month, the Los Angeles Times wrote a robot that issued a warning that a magnitude 6.8 earthquake occurred in California, but in fact, the earthquake occurred 100 years ago.

As the Internet giant Amazon founder Bezos said at a press conference held in Turin, Italy last month: "The media must rely on the power of technology, but not as a slave to technology." He believes that data should be used. Role, but the data is only valuable for human use.

The development of artificial intelligence is unstoppable. In order to improve efficiency, all walks of life are exploring how to use robots to complete simple and repetitive work. In this process, human-machine collaboration is an inevitable trend. Behind the future press release, there may be a human reporter and a virtual reporter standing through the world from different perspectives.
