The final proposal that I will be making is to research on how generative AI and algorithms have been used in the media to maximize views and clicks on their content. I have seen especially in the past few months how publishers have been putting out content that seems to be the most prioritized on getting clicks to make to the most money. My research will be looking to see how Ai models are being used to optimize this process and what the potential and current issues surrounding this are.
The sources will be used to provide some real examples that I believe could showcase this issue as well as some insight from journalists and publishers on their opinions of generative AI models being used in the media industry. One sources in particular is a spanish opinion paper that writes about the threat that AI has on their job security and the harmful effects that it will have on real authentic journalism.
