YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Journalist and author Tim Carney explains why artificial intelligence can crunch data, but it can’t replace being physically present with real people.

Carney shares stories from reporting on Virginia voters and uncovering corruption in his own neighborhood — moments where polls, spreadsheets, and AI tools would have completely missed the real story.

“No AI bot could pick that up,” he says.

From parking lot conversations to courtroom reporting with no official transcript, Carney argues that the future of journalism still depends on something deeply human: showing up.
