The field of journalism over the past decade or so has been witnessing continuous change. Today, journalism is influenced by big data and new computational tools. Data and visualisation have become the latest techniques for telling stories in media, thanks to intersections between journalism and computation. One of the many things that AI is doing for journalism is to make it easier and faster to analyse the data and also synthesise the data into stories. When we mention automatic story writing tools, they use Natural Language Understanding and Processing, to synthesise the stories.
