AI in the Newsroom

AI is already in your newsroom. The question is whether you're using it - or being used by it. AI in the Newsroom is a hands-on guide for journalists, editors and newsroom leaders who want to get to work. Not a book about technology. Not a theoretical overview. A practical manual, written by a journalist who has tested, failed and learned - from inside one of Scandinavia's largest newsrooms. You will learn how to use AI to sharpen your reporting, speed up your workflow and free up time for the journalism that actually matters. You will also learn when not to use it - and why that distinction is just as important. Inside you'll find: Concrete examples of AI tools in daily journalistic work Real experiments from the newsroom - what worked, what didn't, and what we'd never do again Step-by-step guidance on how to get started, even without technical knowledge A framework for prompting, verifying and maintaining editorial control Honest answers on transparency, trust and where to draw the line AI doesn't replace good journalism. It exposes which journalism was never worth producing - and makes room for the work that is. With a foreword by Charlie Beckett, founding director of Polis at the London School of Economics and the global JournalismAI network. Whether you're a skeptic or an early adopter, a reporter or a manager - this book will make you a better journalist.
