FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (KNWA/KFTA) — Artificial intelligence is finding its way to media outlets even in Northwest Arkansas.
AI can be used in many ways like school work, art, music, or even in media.

She says if those in the media use AI, it is important to be ethical about it and make sure the information is factual.
“We have to be honest that this is what this is, and we want to be sure that we’re sharing the truth,” Blackstone said.
