From hidden connections in big data to bots spreading fake news, journalism is increasingly computer-generated. Nicholas Diakopoulos, author of the book Automating the News: How Algorithms Are Rewriting the Media (Harvard University Press, 2019), and Charlie Beckett, author of the report New powers, new responsibilities.
