The Television Academy announced upcoming Emmy rule changes for 2026, including renaming the TV movie category to 'Outstanding Movie,' implementing AI guidelines, and expanding eligibility in various categories such as casting, costumes, and technical arts, while also addressing issues like the shrinking talk and variety series fields.
The Associated Press (AP) has released guidelines for its journalists on the use of generative AI in news gathering. AP emphasizes that AI is not meant to replace journalists but rather to assist them. Journalists are allowed to experiment with AI tools but are cautioned against using them to create publishable content. Any output from AI platforms should be treated as unvetted source material and subject to AP's existing sourcing standards. AP will not allow AI to alter photos, videos, or audio, and will only use AI-generated images if they are the subject of a news story, clearly labeling them as such. Journalists are also advised to avoid using AI-generated content for spreading misinformation and to verify the veracity of the content they use.
Industry leaders in journalism are responding to the arrival of generative AI tools with a mix of pessimism and optimism. Many publishers have already established guidelines and codes of practice for the use of AI in their newsrooms, with some using it to create efficiencies and free up journalists for more complex journalism. The Washington Post has established an AI taskforce and a full-time team to spearhead its experimentation and proof-of-concept initiatives. However, New York Times publisher A.G. Sulzberger warns that AI will bring an unprecedented torrent of misinformation, and Reuters editor-in-chief Alessandra Galloni has laid out four principles for journalists to ensure they use AI effectively while remaining the "world's most trusted news organisation."
