In an industry set on rapid information flow and shortened attention spans, generative AI offers a powerful tool to enhance the value of journalism, particularly during the high-stakes environment of an election. By leveraging AI to delve into archives, we provide crucial historical context, draw meaningful connections between past and present events, and set a more relational tone for public discourse that people can make sense of. Moreover, the integration of generative AI with human-centric interactions, social listening, location data, sentiment analysis, and other indicators (economy, employment, health…) for each community, creates a multidimensional view of the election context is specific areas that makes it easy for the user to find familiar ground from where to absorb the information. This synthesis of information allows journalists to uncover patterns, anticipate trends, and provide more comprehensive coverage tailored to specific demographics or regions which also allows for richer, deeper and longer interactions. By harnessing these technological capabilities, we can take election journalism beyond the “we and them” horse-race reporting or some outlandish quote, offering citizens in-depth, contextualised information that they can relate and build upon from, so that they can make an informed decision at the ballot box.
