While both fields have grown significantly in recent years, there has been little focus on their intersection. A new edited volume by <strong>Julie Alice Gramaccia<\/strong> and <strong>Kyle Conway<\/strong> (University of Ottawa) aims to fill this gap by bringing together scholars across disciplines to examine how AI is reshaping news translation and journalism practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Role of AI in Journalism<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>AI has changed the way journalists and media organizations produce and distribute news. According to a 2023 report, nearly a quarter of media company leaders in over fifty countries confirmed using AI-powered recommendation algorithms to drive audience engagement. Beyond curation, AI is also being used to aggregate and generate news content, raising both <strong>practical concerns<\/strong>\u2014such as consumer trust in AI-generated news\u2014and <strong>ethical challenges<\/strong>, including fact-checking and transparency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Patterns of AI adoption also highlight global inequalities. The global North benefits from greater resources and AI tools adapted to European languages, while the global South faces challenges due to limited resources and fewer language-specific tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AI and News Translation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Research on AI-assisted news translation remains limited but reflects similar trends. While AI tools are increasingly used for translation, human intervention is still necessary to ensure accuracy and maintain credibility. Journalists working in less widely spoken languages must balance efficiency with quality, raising questions about <strong>trust, accessibility, and inclusivity<\/strong> in global media landscapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One critical area of inquiry is whether AI-driven translation can help bridge gaps in news accessibility for underrepresented languages, especially in the global South.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Call for Chapter Proposals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The editors invite contributions for a forthcoming volume in the <strong>Benjamins Translation Library series<\/strong>, published by John Benjamins.
