Panel description
Artificial intelligence is one of the defining stories of our time. It is reshaping the knowledge ecosystem, and journalism is both reporting on these changes and navigating them directly as it experiments with how AI can support its own work. This session examines how the media is framing AI and how those narratives shape public understanding.
Which angles dominate coverage? Which structural questions receive less attention? Are we asking enough about power and accountability, about infrastructure and labor, about climate impact?
The discussion will explore what more rigorous, evidence-based coverage could look like in practice, and what it might mean to get this story right.
