During a compelling interview with Wang Lei from Xinhua, Dr. Iqbal Survé—a pioneering South African entrepreneur and media mogul—shared his insights on the profound impact AI is having on societal development, media transformation , and the future of journalism.In a world of rapidly advancing technology, artificial intelligence emerges as one of the most transformative forces, reshaping industries far and wide, including media.
“It’s not just a technological achievement, it’s something that will deeply influence the future of humanity,” he added. “Journalists will no longer engage in the same tasks as before.
