Based on a broadly representative survey of 1,004 journalists, the 
report covers:

— Whether and how journalists use artificial intelligence (AI) 
professionally.
— The extent to which they see it as a threat and as an opportunity for 
journalism.
— The levels of concern they have about various potential ethical 
consequences of the use of AI in journalism.
— How AI usage is linked to aspects of their job satisfaction.
— Differences in journalists’ AI use and attitudes by gender, age, 
reporting beat, seniority, and media formats worked with.
— Journalists’ perceptions of how deeply AI is integrated into their 
main newsroom’s processes.
— Whether their employer provides AI training and guidelines/protocols 
and uses third-party and/or in-house AI tools.
— Their employer’s general stance towards AI and plans for its future 
integration.
— Differences in employers’ approaches towards AI by size, 
public/private ownership, and media cultural background.


The authors of the report are Prof Neil Thurman of LMU Munich and City 
St George’s, University of London, Sina Thäsler-Kordonouri of LMU 
Munich, and Dr Richard Fletcher of the Reuters Institute for the Study 
of Journalism at Oxford University.
