With AI-driven tools becoming pervasive in newsrooms, influencing nearly every aspect of journalism from retrieving information through to production and distribution, this report examines both the opportunities and questions which artificial intelligence raises for public service broadcasters.  

Laws recently introduced in Europe to regulate AI are examined, as well as forms of self-regulation that many broadcasters have introduced to ensure their use of AI holds true to values and ethics as public service broadcasters, to ensure reliability, transparency, diversity and fairness.
