The Garden Island is leading the way in local news innovation by adopting AI-generated news anchors, which raises questions about engagement and authenticity in journalism.
Guthrie Scrimgeour highlights that the AI personas, while intended to revitalize local news, produce an unnerving experience due to their inhuman movements and identical delivery tone.
Dina Shatner from Caledo asserts that traditional news reading is boring and their AI-generated personas provide a more 'engaging' way to consume news, igniting a debate on journalistic integrity.
Critics express disdain over the AI news anchors, expressing that local journalism should remain authentic and connected to the community, opposing the mechanical and emotionless presentation.
