Former Bloomberg News editor in chief Matthew Winkler stressed the importance of journalists adopting artificial intelligence to enhance efficiency.
Mohammed Awal of the Business & Financial Times in Ghana writes, “According to him, Bloomberg has over the years harnessed various aspects of the technology to deliver content ‘faster and better.’
“‘The beauty of AI, in a nutshell, is its ability to provide highly informative content much faster and more efficiently than [traditional methods]. We are just at the beginning, but Bloomberg, for example, is already effectively utilizing it,’ Winkler told the B&FT.
“‘This is not a 2023 phenomenon; it’s a development that has been evolving over decades,’ he added.
“Winkler founded Bloomberg News with Michael Bloomberg in 1990, becoming its first employee and leader for 25 years. He also created the Bloomberg Journalism Diversity Programme in 2015, an international partnership with universities conceived to inspire careers in all aspects of economic reporting among students of colour.”
