In the future, AI will write news stories and present them with deepfake AI news anchors. As AI improves, you will be unable to discern what is fake and real. Some experts are forecasting that as much as 80 percent of the news will be delivered this way by 2028. Layer on the AI bots that will comment on the AI-generated stories, and you will see reality fading out in your rearview mirror. — Technocracy News & Trends Editor Patrick Wood

Journalists have branded plans for artificial intelligence news anchors ‘utterly terrifying’ – as an LA-based channel looks set to launch them next year.

Channel 1 is using the tech to create digital humans to provide updates about what is happening across the world.

The station wants to launch them on free ad-supported streaming TV – including apps such as Crackle, Tubi, or Pluto – as early as February.

But the news has horrified reporters across the US, who warned it could ‘have huge ramifications for an already depleted news industry.’

Ruby Media Group CEO Kristen Ruby shared on X: ‘If you believe in the concept of ‘fake news,’ you have seen nothing. At least your news is presented by humans. When AI news anchors replace human news anchors – the concept of fake news will have a totally different meaning.’

Alec Lazenby, a Canada’s BC Today reporter, also shared his concerns on X: ‘This is utterly utterly terrifying. While the development of an entirely AI-powered broadcast is beyond impressive, it could have huge ramifications for an already depleted news industry and accelerate the loss of high-quality reporters and anchors.’

DailyMail.com spoke with Channel 1 founder Adam Mosam, who assured his company will not exploit the controversial technology.

Mosam admitted that misuse of AI-generated news is inevitable, but Channel 1 aims to ‘get out in front of this and create a responsible use of the technology.’

The Evil Twins of Technocracy and Transhumanism

But the public foresees a dystopian future where ‘fake news’ runs rampant because computer algorithms generate it.

Many online publications attempted this journey in the last year, and nearly all regretted the decision.

Mass media company Gannett owns several US publications, including the Louisville Courrier Journal, AZ Central, Florida Today and the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, which used an AI service called LedeAI to pump out local high school sports stories.
