Robot named Quick writes his first newspaper article

The London Journal has published on Friday, the news report of an earthquake which was written by a robot. Journalist and programmer Nick Scott created an algorithm that automatically generated a short text when the earthquake happened. The whole process, from writing to publication on the website of the newspaper, lasted just three minutes. Robotic journalism is increasingly being used in newsrooms around the world. The London Journal is a leader in this field. Robots are taking information about an event from trusted sources, such as The Geological Survey of Europe, and then they insert the data into a prepared template. In addition to the earthquake, there are algorithms for crime news that have subsequently been checked by editors. “Robots will not replace journalists, but will simply sort the available data faster. This is just meant as a help to journalists which will allow them to save time, and is in no way going to be a threat to their profession,” says the author of the algorithm, Nick Scott.

Stop Corruption In Education. Remedy The Issue!

Stop Corruption In Education. Remedy The Issue!
Schools in our county are making great progress in removing corruption and discrimination by implementing civic education. Key program features include the opportunity for students to learn how unacceptable are all forms of discrimination (from gender to ethnicity and race) and to boost diversity and to accept different people (regardless of status). Students will be required to listen the subject from the first year in the school to the end of basic secondary education (for total of thirty five hours per year).
