[Air-L] Syllabus for Artificial Intelligence and Journalism

[Olga Boichak]

Greetings, Jack,

Meredith Broussard recently published a book called Artificial Unintelligence - it's got a chapter on data journalism:
https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/artificial-unintelligence

Also, Data & Society have a good primer on algorithmic accountability reporting, which might be of interest:

Best,
Olga

    Greetings, friends,
    
    I am putting together an undergraduate class, or at least a sizable module,
    on artificial intelligence and journalism. My goal is two-fold:
    
    At the very least, I want to prepare journalism students to be able to
    report upon the current and future social impact of AI.
    
    Ideally, I would like journalism students to be prepared to help
    anticipate, influence and shape the intersection of AI and journalism.
    
    I would greatly appreciate any thoughts on books, articles, links and
    resources that you think might be useful.
    
    With thanks and best wishes.
    
    Jack
