“Emily Bell is director of the Colombia Journalism Tow Center for Digital Journalism in New York. She says that reporting on AI today is more difficult than covering the rise of the internet in the early 2000s, or the growth of smart phones from 2007, because today’s news cycle moves far more quickly. ‘What’s different today is that there are announcements about AI products, and then there is the noise of social media around it,’ she says. ‘Executives like Sam Altman of OpenAI and Elon Musk are putting their opinions forward on a frequent basis, and there’s also the immediate critique of releases from experts that feeds into the news cycle, so everything is sped up.'” —SC
