English Speaking Artificial Intelligence Anchor Debuts in China!

The first artificial intelligence (AI) anchor is introduced by Xinhua News Agency based in China.

We've come a long, complicated way from the days when "conversing" involved drawing on cave walls and passing messages by pigeons to the present, when Facebooking, Snapchatting, or tweeting our views and ideas to the globe has become the norm. Technology is the strong magic weapon giving wings to our pigeons in today's society, which is dominated and impacted by digitalization. The pigeons are now on many mass media platforms, such as TV, newspapers, and news media. Artificial intelligence, a technology characterized by the replication of human intelligence for use in machines and for programming them to think in terms of humans and to replicate their activities, gives these platforms a completely new structure and identity.

In China, the first artificial intelligence (AI) news anchor made her debut. An AI anchor has been added to the state-run Xinhua News Agency of China. Zhang Zhao, a regular news presenter, served as the model for the AI anchor. It made its premiere on Thursday at the World Internet Conference in Zhejiang Province, in the country's east. The English-speaking AI news anchor can work relentlessly around-the-clock and learn from real-time videos. According to the business, the new anchor picks up skills from live broadcasting videos on its own and can read material just like an experienced news anchor.

"The development of the media industry needs for continual innovation and deep integration with the international advanced technology," the AI anchor stated during the inaugural broadcast. "I will work relentlessly to keep you informed as texts will be input into my system without interruption." I'm excited to give you brand-new news experiences, it continued. Xinhua and the Chinese search engine Sogou.com have jointly developed the robot anchor. The news source claims that rather than being a stiff robot, the AI anchors were created through machine learning to mimic the speech, facial expressions, and gestures of real-life presenters.

Two further pieces from the AI broadcaster were also carried by Xinhua on its Twitter account, one of which covered China's statement regarding the launch of its first Mars probe in 2020 and the other of which paid thanks to Chinese journalists. "Before we go, I'd want to give my best wishes to all of the journalists across the country," the Ai host stated as she wrapped up the program. As a developing AI anchor, I am aware that I still have a lot to learn. Research Company Gartner has forecast that the industry will produce 2.3 million jobs and remove 1.8 million by 2020, at a time when the globe is concerned that AI may lead to job losses and unintended discrimination. The market is anticipated to earn more than $3.9 trillion over the course of the next five years, according to Gartner. Major corporations like Apple and Coinbase use the AI platform Triplebyte for recruitment, conducting online interviews with software engineers.
