Imagining a newsroom powered by artificial intelligence

In Facebook Messenger, for example, several news organization such as CNN and The Wall Street Journal are already using bots and some level of automation to deliver news through the platform. Artificial intelligence understands the environment it operates in and performs certain actions as a result of it. AI seeks to learn what its users want and how they want it. In the specific case of news media, articles can be processed through algorithms that analyze readers' locations, social media posts and other publicly available data. They can then be served content tailored to their personality, mood and social economic status, among other things.
