How young people engage with news
While young people use and engage with news differently from older generations, they continue to value concepts such as trustworthiness and fairness.
Essential elements of the news genre
At its core, news is defined by what’s considered newsworthy, a criterion that has evolved over time. Traditionally, a story is deemed newsworthy if it’s unusual, as encapsulated by Jesse Lynch Williams’ adage "a dog bites a man, that's a story; a man bites a dog, that's a good story.”

AI (artificial intelligence) is a way of using computer algorithms to do things with little or no human involvement.
Generative AI
Generative AI is what we call AI systems that can generate things like images, video, voice and text. They do this by first encoding many examples of the kind of content they’re going to make, then decoding to make something new.
