This panel will explore the complex relationship between AI adoption and business sustainability in newsrooms, with a particular focus on small and resource-constrained media outlets, especially those in Global Majority countries. While large, well-funded news organizations are rapidly integrating AI technologies, many smaller newsrooms are struggling to balance innovation with day-to-day survival. We'll examine how newsrooms with limited resources can effectively integrate AI while maintaining focus on core operations and audience service, and whether the success of AI-advanced newsrooms is widening the gap between media "haves" and "have-nots."
