Thank you to Tim Porter for having me on your podcast "Local News Matters" again! I'm honored to have been the first repeat guest. This episode delves into how AI tools are currently being used in newsrooms to free up time for journalists and better service audiences. The conversation highlights the potential of AI to influence storytelling and marketing, its impacts on journalism and local news, and the changes it could bring about. We discussed various practical AI use cases for journalists, including processing police reports, automated translation of weather reports, and creating transcripts of public meetings. We emphasized the importance of “human in the loop” in AI applications and the need for journalists to adapt to new tools and methodologies. AI isn't here to take over journalism but rather to help journalists focus on the more important stuff.

A great conversation with Kara Swisher on the Invisible Machines podcast. Got my wheels turning when Kara and Robb W. hit on the double-edged sword of product designers not getting credit for their work (think of Sam Altman getting credit for ChatGPT). But its a hot-seat - with that spotlight comes increased culpability. If product designers did get more credit, wouldn't there also be more pressure to design responsibly? Fascinating to consider, especially with the increasingly ethics-laden design challenges many are faced with as they incorporate AI into product experiences. #aiproducts #ethicalAI #productdesign #aipodcast
