The news of an'armchair' robot dishing out an article in lightening speed in China has stunned an already smothered Indian print media, currently reeling under layoffs and ad revenue cut. History was made when the robot Xiao Nan reportedly typed a 300 characters-long article in just a second, which was eventually published in the Guangzhou-based Southern Metropolis Daily. Interestingly, it has a much stronger capacity for data analysis and is quick to write articles much faster than editors can ever think. Editors are ecstatic at the news as all kinds of reporters, including'pressitutes' and hardcore nationalist types, are just a switch away. But what makes them gloom is the realisation that a robot editor is getting ready in the Chinese backyard.
