Korea International Broadcasting Foundation
ARI bilingual AI anchor for AI Headline News
Arirang put bilingual AI anchor ARI on air 2 times each weekday
Problem
Conventional television news required studio crews and an anchor. Arirang wanted a production system that could make news with fewer staff outside normal working hours.
Approach
The foundation began broadcasting AI Headline News on November 27, 2023. Its AI anchor ARI presented in Korean and English. The program used existing afternoon and evening news as its basis and aired at 16:00 and 22:00 on weekdays.
Results
Takeaway
The AI bulletin reused reporting from the existing newsroom. Its production staffing differed from the conventional news program, so the comparison did not establish equivalent output per employee.
