Not sure how comp sci is dealing, but what happens to journalism when we lose our training system (apprenticeships, basically) because of this?
In my experience, many fresh j-school grads don't have the mental muscles that let them build complex stories, or even call BS on things sources say.

To make that work, though, you need an editor who knows the background, chapter and verse, to catch any AI hallucinations. And that's a bit like designing an airplane that needs a super-experienced pilot to land safely -- it just can't be guaranteed, in my experience.

It's unfortunate, because those are the exact things young/new reporters need to become competent in the first place.
