Resumen

Algoritmos, bots y automatización en la elaboración de noticias. Este conjunto de conceptos, elementos y procesos afecta a la profesión periodística que vive momentos convulsos donde la inteligencia artificial (IA) está empezando a ocupar un terreno tradicionalmente dominado por el factor humano. En esta investigación elaboramos un mapa mundial de medios, agencias y empresas que recurren a la automatización en la elaboración de información. Además, definimos la percepción sobre este fenómeno en España a través de una encuesta a colegios profesionales, asociaciones y sindicatos donde 366 periodistas dibujan el estado de la cuestión con sus respuestas. Los principales resultados muestran cómo existe un desconocimiento profundo por parte de los periodistas españoles de la influencia directa de la IA en la profesión. La automatización de noticias no deja de ganar terreno tal y como demuestran las 50 iniciativas catalogadas a nivel mundial en el mapa elaborado.
