A BlackRock analyst is working to improve journalism in a unique way. Dakota Carrasco has created a newsroom called The Dissent, which covers San Francisco. The Dissent uses artificial intelligence instead of human reporters to gather and present news.
This approach is distinct from traditional journalism methods. Further details about The Dissent and its goals are available from The San Francisco Standard, which has more information on this innovative project and its creator, Dakota Carrasco.
