Reach ‘exploring’ use of ChatGPT for news coverage

In brief

UK publisher Reach is exploring uses for ChatGPT in helping to draft news coverage.

Reach CEO Jim Mullen has set up a working group to inspect how OpenAI’s ChatGPT can aid human reporters, such as working on routine stories like traffic and weather coverage.

A source familiar with the working group at Reach informed The Media Leader that the teams are looking at using ChatGPT for non-local as well as local reportage.
