© Illustration : Jérémie Luciani The Institut National de l’Audiovisuel (INA) has led and coordinated the production of the first mapping of AI-related issues and uses in journalism, in


partnership with French public audiovisual media (France Télévisions, Radio France, France Médias Monde, TV5 Monde). Antoine Bayet   Lemarchand Publié le 06 février 2025 Which AI tools can


be most useful in newsrooms? What questions do their uses raise? How can we identify tools that contribute to better journalism — offering more reliable information, facilitating fact


verification — and, conversely, those that might contribute to widespread misinformation? Newsrooms worldwide are grappling with these challenges. As Paris hosts the "Summit for Action


on Artificial Intelligence" from February 6 to 11, INA and its partners from the French public audiovisual sector (France Télévisions, Radio France, France Médias Monde, TV5 Monde) are


releasing the first mapping of AI issues and uses in journalism, one of the key deliverables of the AI Summit. The approach is straightforward: examine the challenges posed by generative AI


across the entire news production chain — from information gathering to formatting, verification, and dissemination, while also considering broader concerns specific to media organizations.


This first publication, which will be expanded and developed further, includes a map of AI uses and tools for journalism: It also features an evaluation framework to assess the relevance of


these tools — serving as a precursor to concrete AI tool assessments that may follow within the same framework: _The design of this document was coordinated and led by the National


Audiovisual Institute (INA), under the direction of Xavier Lemarchand (Director of IA Coordination & Integration) and Antoine Bayet (Editorial Director of INA) and relies on the


contributions and careful review of the editorial and digital teams of Radio France (Florent Latrive, Alexandre Barlot), France Télévisions (Éric Scherer, Kati Bremme, Christophe de


Vallambras, Cédric Nilly), France Médias Monde (Cécile Mégie, Bruno Flaven, Vincent Fleury), TV5MONDE (Hélène Zemmour, Xavier Marquet) and INA (François Quinton, Camille Pettineo). _
