Doepfner’s statements were made at a time when the publisher was trying to move forward with increasing the revenues of German newspapers Bild and Die Welt and becoming an “all-digital media company”. Doepfner announced that layoffs are imminent as automation and artificial intelligence make many jobs that support content production for journalism increasingly redundant.

“THE BEST ORIGINAL CONTENT WILL BE EXPERIENCED”

“Understanding this change is crucial to a publisher’s future viability. Only those who create the best original content will survive,” Doepfner said. aforementioned.

However, Axel Springer did not specify how many employees could be laid off, but promised there would be no cuts to the number of reporters.

The program can generate highly complex text from simple user commands and can produce everything from essays to job applications, from poems to works of fiction.
