@danielpleus previously shared these two very interesting links:
Wayfinder by Ezra Eeman, great strategic insights:
https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/wayfinder-the-open-edition-6888399695379521536Aftonbladet AI Hub (where Daniel works), lots of insights on the practical implementation in the newsroom

Favourite AI newsletter: "The Rundown AI" by Rowan Cheung (https://www.therundown.ai/)
Loved the episode of the NYT Tech Podcast with Perplexity's Aravind Srinivas.

Learn about the newest AI developments in media mostly by following international editors/journalists/companies (from Aftonbladet, The Guardian, F.A.Z.....) on Linkedin
Can recommend the videos of the recent Nordic Media Summit and Perugia journalism festival on YouTube
Current read: Ethan Mollicks "Co-Intelligence"
The AP has an AI Slack channel that is full of strong community members. I don't have many specific AI in journalism sources, but I do keep a blog category of anything I find that is related to publishing. https://ethanbholland.com/category/ai/publishing/
Also, this channel is awesome on YouTube. He's got a great delivery and is accessible (for laypeople)... but always tinkering and having a good time.

For investigative journalism, this is an incredible resource by Leon Yin, a journalist himself with some really cool work on discovering bias in AI models online such as hiring tools, and anticompetitive behavior in Amazon’s search etc.
