Resumo
Introduction: Changes in journalism have been considered a modernization of the news production and an update of the process to include advances in technology. The transformation over the last four decades has resulted from a handcrafted newspaper both in layout and typesetting to an online story with newsworthy texts created by prepared machines that, using algorithms, imitate structures and the way to write the news and substitute journalists. Artificial journalism is increasingly present in the media, which starts to open deontological, labour and social debates. Method: A bibliographic review is carried out to identify and summarize the main reports and studies in journalism automation. Also, a comparative analysis of sport news written by algorithms and by human journalists is conducted. Results: Cases of the impact of automation in reference media are referred, and narrative patterns of computer-generated news. Conclusions: Future trends are identified and associated to the changes resulting from the ongoing implementation of artificial intelligence in the media and their relations with audiences.
