German Tabloid Bild to Replace Editorial Jobs With AI
Germany’s Bild tabloid, the biggest-selling newspaper
in Europe, plans to replace a range of editorial jobs
with artificial intelligence (AI), it has told staff
in an email, according to The Guardian.
As part of a separate, more immediate €100m cost-cutting
program aimed at restoring profitability, the paper is
also reorganizing its regional newspaper business in a
move expected to lead to hundreds of redundancies.

I guess Germans would rather hear a robot's "opinion"
about events of the day ............
We'd have THOUGHT that "editorial" jobs - human views
on human events - would be AI-Proof. Nope - not at all.
"Bild" is a highly-consumed paper/tabloid ... I guess
sort of like "Enquirer" and friends in the USA.
Robot "opinions" aren't even robot opinions - they are
guided/scripted ... but by WHOM ? WHY ? To WHAT ends ?
Now, tell me, what becomes of all these human workers ?
How do they - well, let's get real - even EAT ??? Where
does the dole money come from, other Germans ? But THEY
will soon be obsolete too ..........
Then what ?
