[INFOWARS] Professor of Computer Science Dr. Kristian Hammond predicts that by 2030, 90 per cent of all news stories will be written not by human news hounds but by computer algorithms.Since it's infowars, we'd normally suggest the usual grain of salt, but since we're pioneering the concept...
Hammond, co-founded of Narrative Science, helped develop a program with news hound and programmer Ken Schwencke that relies on a fusion of statistics and journalistic cliches to write simple news stories.
Analysts say the forthcoming election has been a factor in the rising sectarian violence in Iraq in recent months, with Mr Maliki and other Shia political leaders determined to be seen to be taking a hard line against militancy rather than reach out to the Sunni Arab minority.

Saleh was removed from power in a year-long uprising that started in 2011 and ended after he signed a power transfer deal that gave him immunity from prosecution in return for leaving power in 2012.
While the L.A. Times is open about its use of the program, many other mainstream news websites are using "robo-news hounds" completely anonymously without a disclaimer.
The government is optimistic that the banned group would extend the ceasefire.
According to Singularity Hub's Jason Dorrier, Professor Hammond, "thinks some 90% of the news could be written by computers by 2030." And don't think this will just be restricted to sports results or earthquakes. Hammond also believes that "a computer could write stories worthy of a Pulitzer Prize by 2017."
However,a person who gets all wrapped up in himself makes a mighty small package...

This speaks to the increasingly redundant role of mainstream news news hounds. Journalists working for the corporate press have abandoned their role as adversarial checks against the state to such a degree that they are now being replaced by computers.

Mainstream news hounds have become so adept at merely regurgitating official narratives and echoing government talking points unchallenged that they are now being replaced by robots -- and nobody is even noticing.
