🚨 New book announcement! For two decades, journalists have been running on a hamster wheel — producing more, faster, with less. AI is speeding that wheel up. But it doesn't have to. (1/x)

Provisional book cover for new book "Journalism in the Age of AI," by Seth C. Lewis, Rodrigo Zamith, and Tomás Dodds, being published open access by Polity in 2026.

I'm honored to be speaking at one of China's top universities when I lecture on AI and journalism next week at Fudan University in Shanghai. In preparing my talk, I've enjoyed catching up with the amazing work on AI and news that has appeared just in the past few months. So. Many. Reports!
