To illustrate, with one click, 21 pieces are produced for the day (seven stories in three languages), which is a huge amount for the whole month and year,\u201d says Ananyan.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In his words, automating economic news creates an added value for the newsroom and their customers. Henceforth, journalists will spend their time not on publishing these news stories, but on producing analytical pieces, investigations, and interviews.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s always a demand by media consumers for creative approaches, which bots can\u2019t provide. We\u2019re not doing this to cut back on journalists; we\u2019re ensuring free time for them to create quality content,\u201d he says.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Ananyan says that there are already positive reactions. If this pilot program succeeds, in the future they will automate also coverage of statistical data and their comparisons, since the future of the media is inevitably leading us in that direction.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In his words, the vehicle allows them to analyze a large amount of data according to products and economic sectors, which can become a very good tool for both journalists and investors. Annual, quarterly, and other such comparative analyses can be a source of many interesting developments.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNever in history have technologies been so cheap; we\u2019ve simply done technical work on algorithms. This isn\u2019t really a revelation: many international media outlets have long been using automation in the market,\u201d says the agency\u2019s director, adding that the use of technologies is a good opportunity particularly for small newsrooms, where resources are limited.<\/p>\n<p class=\"rteright\"><strong>Gayane Asryan<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Armenpress news agency has automated its daily economic newsfeed.
