The success of these tools will largely depend on how keen audiences are to use them in the first place, and there are big regional and demographic differences. www.niemanlab.org/2025/06/ai-p...

AI-personalized news takes new forms (but do readers want it?)
Many outlets have been personalizing news recommendations for years, but generative AI introduces the possibility to personalize news formats.

Younger people, who tend to be more comfortable with AI in general, also showed greater interest in the use of AI for personalising *formats* (e.g. adapting articles to different reading levels), as well as chatbots.

Amy Ross Arguedas @amyrossarguedas.bsky.social · 24/06/2025
More broadly, respondents tended to express more enthusiasm across the board in countries where comfort with the use of AI in journalism is higher, such as India and Thailand, whereas we see much lower interest in countries with low AI comfort, such as the UK.
100 1
Amy Ross Arguedas @amyrossarguedas.bsky.social · 24/06/2025
We found some differences by markets: e.g. translation ranks higher in linguistically unique European countries (e.g. Finland, Hungary); interest in adapting language for dif reading levels ranks higher in countries with lower literacy rates or reading proficiency (most popular option in India).
100 1
Amy Ross Arguedas @amyrossarguedas.bsky.social · 24/06/2025
We found relatively low interest – below 30% – for any single option (which may be shaped by low familiarity with these kinds of tools). Interest was highest in options for making news use more efficient (summaries and translations) and relevant (customised homepages and recommendations or alerts).
100 1
Amy Ross Arguedas @amyrossarguedas.bsky.social · 24/06/2025
Then we looked at audience interest in 8 different types of AI-driven news personalisation, including options for personalised *selection* (e.g. customised news homepages), but also options for personalised *formats* (e.g. summaries, translations, text-to-audio) and AI chatbots.
100 1
Amy Ross Arguedas @amyrossarguedas.bsky.social · 24/06/2025
In open comments, those who said they were comfortable with personalised news selection explained they appreciated things like greater relevance, efficiency, and diversity; those who were uncomfortable questioned the quality of recommendations or worried about biases, missing out, surveillance, etc.
100 1
Amy Ross Arguedas @amyrossarguedas.bsky.social · 24/06/2025
We found that close to half of respondents are comfortable with personalised news selection, but comfort was lower than personalisation for weather, music, or online TV (and higher than for social media/video feeds).
100 1
Amy Ross Arguedas @amyrossarguedas.bsky.social · 24/06/2025
First, we looked at audience comfort with personalised *selection* across different kinds of websites and apps to understand how comfort with algorithmic recommendation in news compares to other domains.

News is too much and too negative according to growing shares of the audience. In 2025, 40% say they sometimes or often avoid the news (up from 29% in 2017). Switzerland & Germany right on trend. Why? • 39%: “negatively affects my mood” • 31%: “worn out by the amount” • 30%: “too much conflict”
