Abstract

As computer technology develops like a sky-rocket, AI involves an abundance of fields, and more people start to use it and gradually become dependent on it. Therefore, people struggle on whether AI is good or bad, and how they can balance between Al and reality. In today’s information network society, there is a tremendous amount of misinformation in the journalism industry, which makes people wonder what information to believe. Authenticity of news plays an extremely important role in this world, which is why I research how AI systems effectively combine with human thinking as a maximum benefit for media companies within journalism to create unbiased and trustworthy information, which will be a literature review for my topic. The advantage of authenticity is that the AI system has no emotions, so many people think that AI is unbiased, but AI will only listen to human instructions. If people are biased, then this AI will also be biased towards the other side. The thing that I want to achieve is to find a balanced way to allow AI and human ideas to coexist to achieve the best results, so that misinformation and prejudice in this world can disappear and gradually decrease as much as possible. Everyone needs to know the most real thing and the absolute privilege not to be guided by other people's biases, because everyone has the right to know the truth, and how to evaluate this matter does not need to be guided by others, and one's own ideas It is often the most important for each individual. Journalists should reflect the most real situation to the society and the public. Mutually beneficial and AI systems can make misinformation and bias disappear, understand this information, and find solutions.
