[London School of Economics JournalismAI Festival 🎉] Context Cards

Using AI to auto-create and distribute context in the form of cards alongside news articles https://context-cards.com/

Context Cards is a machine learning model that creates and suggests context – data, bio, summary, location, timeline – to audiences and journalists, alongside an article. It trains on newsroom archives and learns from editors’ feedback. This team is building on prior work, including modularjournalism.com, Newscards, and Structured Stories. Speakers:

• Ritvvij Parrikh, Director of News Products, Times of India
• Karn Bhushan, Lead Data Analyst, Times of India
• Amanda Strydom, Senior Programme Manager, Code for Africa

The JournalismAI Fellowship is an annual programme bringing together journalists and technologists from diverse newsrooms to explore AI-powered solutions for journalism. On the first day of the JournalismAI Festival 2022, the cohort presented the findings from their six-month collaborative projects and shared what they had learned along the way.
