Automating the News

How Algorithms Are Rewriting the Media

Beschreibung

From hidden connections in big data to bots spreading fake news, journalism is increasingly computer-generated. Nicholas Diakopoulos explains the present and future of a world in which algorithms have changed how the news is created, disseminated, and received, and he shows why journalistsâ and their valuesâ are at little risk of being replaced.
