Transparency is the new credibility. And the narrative remains human,\" Bautista told the attendees of the congress, dedicated to the journalist, writer and director of List\u00edn Diario, Miguel Franjul.\n\nThe speaker stated that the contemporary journalist needs to become a \"request engineer\" capable of formulating precise instructions to artificial intelligence models to obtain relevant findings, and highlighted the deep documentary research capabilities offered by platforms such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude.\n\n\"A Dominican journalist with a smartphone today has access to investigative capabilities that five years ago were only available in newsrooms with multimillion-dollar budgets. What has not been reduced is the asymmetry of training,\" said Bautista, who is the author of the book \"The Invisible Co-pilot, AI to manage crises and narratives.\"\n\nBautista cited international cases such as the Philadelphia Inquirer, which developed a research assistant to navigate 350,000 archived articles; Infobae's ScribNews platform, which increased editorial productivity by 35 percent; and the COA Beat Assistant in the Philippines, which reduced the time for analyzing government audit reports by 80 percent.\n\nIn terms of ethics, the consultant warned about the \"AI slop\" phenomenon \u2014 low-quality synthetic content and recalled that in 2024 and 2025, AI-generated videos were broadcast as real news on international television networks. \"The cost of manufacturing a reputational crisis is zero dollars. The cost of recovery is incalculable,\" he warned.\n\n\n
