Jornalismo e Inteligência Artificial

Abstract

We live in an increasingly connected society, with ever greater possibilities of knowing the world through clicks and screen views. But is such knowledge leading us to greater edifications, or are we becoming less and less informed amidst so many possibilities of information? In times of profusion and expansion of Artificial Intelligence, we bring you this book that aims to conduct a serious, provocative and, above all, reflective debate on the issues of AI, as it is also known, and the perspectives of contemporary informational mediation led by Journalism. It is about the urgent need for Journalism to once again be a protagonist in an increasingly connected society, but with the paradox of feeling increasingly less informed, delving into Journalism itself, presenting historical and contemporary questions about this area, bringing up controversies and how informational mediation has been impacted by Artificial Intelligence devices. It is also worth noting that it is currently fashionable to talk about Artificial Intelligence, but its propositions and thoughts are almost a century old, delving into explaining what AI is, bringing its faces, interfaces, previous, historical and contemporary elements, in addition to its most present types. Then it deals with ChatGPT, going through Bard, Bing and Gemini, in addition to other AIs that change, and will change, our ways of using information mediations, talking about the main generative AI systems currently used, as well as beginning to provoke questions about journalistic issues themselves. Meanwhile, it also provokes about Journalism after all this, discussing current issues and a very near future about the role of Journalism in this process, between its traditional faces and its perspectives with AIs. And it also talks about how to protect oneself from pseudo-materials considered journalistic? Remembering that many of them are simply made by Artificial Intelligence, to confuse and deceive us, dealing with clarification mechanisms on how AIs can act to manipulate and understand this, including when humans act in the malicious and unethical use of Artificial Intelligence systems.
