China Daily, a Chinese state-run publication, is at the forefront of media innovation, utilizing AI to streamline newsroom operations and enhance content generation.

During a recent visit to the China Daily offices in Beijing, IGIHE learned that the company has integrated AI into its digital news app, responding to the rising global consumption of digital news compared to traditional newspaper reading.

The mobile application allows readers to access daily stories on the go. AI algorithms in the app help tailor news recommendations to individual readers' interests. An AI-powered translation tool also facilitates the dissemination of news to a global audience.

Additionally, China Daily has a virtual journalist powered by cutting-edge AI technology. Dubbed Yuanxi, she can perform a wide range of tasks, including scanning and analyzing various news sources in real-time, providing the company with up-to-date news trends and information.

Yuanxi has the ability to process vast amounts of information in real-time, scanning multiple sources, analyzing trends, and generating reports far faster than a human could. This accelerates the news-gathering and reporting process, allowing China Daily to stay ahead in the rapidly evolving news landscape.

Ji Tao, Editor-in-Chief at China Daily, terms the innovations and use of new technology at the Chinese media house as a unique selling point.

'Don't leave the paper, just innovate,' he advises, adding, 'Maintaining a neutral stance in reporting is also crucial, ensuring unbiased coverage without taking sides.'

Shao Xin Yin, journalist and editor at the international news desk, highlights the importance of fact-checking and ensuring authenticity and accurate reporting. "We fact-check at least each story, even if it's not 100% accurate, for the sake of authenticity," she adds.

Since its launch in 1981, China Daily has established itself as one of the leading print press companies in China. With a flagship newspaper that covers a wide range of topics, including business, sports, world pop news, and more, China Daily has become a household name.

Besides the technology, the management reiterates that commitment to inclusivity and diversity sets the paper apart. The newspaper invites expats to contribute their opinions, providing a unique perspective on global issues.
