The newspaper, Il Foglio an Italian conservative liberal daily is launched after a month long experiment to showcase AI’s impact “on our way of working and our days”, the newspaper’s editor, Claudio Cerasa, said. “It will be the first daily newspaper in the world on newsstands created entirely using artificial intelligence,” he added.  “For everything. For the writing, the headlines, the quotes, the summaries. And, sometimes, even for the irony.” He added that journalists’ roles would be limited to “asking questions [into an AI tool] and reading the answers”.
