"Besides, the world already has more than enough content. The last thing we need is a machine that spits out yet more. What the world needs from journalism is research, reporting, service, solutions, accountability, empathy, context, history, humanity."

@jeffjarvis @emilymbender More than anything, journalism needs references. There is no excuse in the digital age (like paper is expensive; so just trust our editors to have good sources).
Maybe the Western English speaking world has enough info, news desertification notwithstanding. Elsewhere?

@emilymbender @jeffjarvis It's sad for all of us that Jeff Jarvis chose until last month to cheer the destruction of traditional journalism while praising Google and big tech at so many turns. Looks like he's briefly attempting to course-correct his ways.
