The Policy Center for the New South organizes a closed roundtable exploring the intersection of Artificial Intelligence and Journalism. The conversation delves into:

  • Conflict Journalism: With Al tools increasingly deployed in conflict zones, often resulting in manipulated imagery or deepfake videos that escalate misinformation, how can Al systems be governed to uphold accuracy, ethical standards, and reduce bias?
  • Political Coverage: Given recent controversies involving Al-generated disinformation and the amplification of false narratives, what best practices and regulatory frameworks can ensure Al is used to enhance transparency and accountability in political journalism?
  • Healthcare Communication: In contexts such as the COVID-19 pandemic, where Al-driven algorithms have sometimes led to biased health messaging and unequal access to critical information, what strategies can ensure Al contributes to equitable, clear, and reliable healthcare communication?
