Using AI in Journalism Research - Radio Boot Camp

By Radio Boot Camp

Artificial intelligence and large language models offer great upside to reporters and producers who want to make their research and preparation more efficient. But how can you make sure you get reliable, truthful information from chatbots while also spotting hallucinations and other errors?

This session will showcase real-life examples of how instructor Dave Shaw used OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Anthropic’s Claude LLMs for interview research and prep. You’ll learn from his trial-and-error methods, including tips on:

Weeding out bad information with sharp prompt-writing Navigating paywalls Refining questions to yield the information you really need Sourcing pitfalls to avoid While this is not a class about the AI ethics, the course is informed by the instructor’s more than 25 years of experience in rigorous, fact-based journalism at some of the most trusted publishers of news and information.

This summary is 100 percent human generated. This class is capped at 15.
