Navigating the Ethics of AI in Media

Does Canadaland use A.I. in the newsroom? Why do some of our old episode tile art images look so glossy? Are all of our shows written by ChatGPT? The answers to these questions are revealed in this episode of Off The Record, where host Sam grills Canadaland management on our new AI Guidelines, set to be released to the public soon.

Host: Sam Konnert

Credits: Tristan Capacchione (Producer), Tony Wang (Executive Producer), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Publisher)
