The research highlights the potential of AI in enhancing News Reporting, including clear labelling, data source identification, algorithms audits, human oversight, and error correction. The benefits of AI in news reporting are identified as increased efficiency, improved accuracy, enhanced personalization, real-time reporting, indepth analysis and reduced bias. However, the study also notes several challenges associated with AI adoption in news reporting including, job displacement, lack of transparency, risk of manipulation, technical limitations, ethical concerns and public trust. The study employed a qualitative research approach involving indepth interview with seven respondents (7) from Kano and other places.
