Asian Newsrooms Embrace AI Tools but Trust Gaps and Revenue Pressures Persist

Shared with SuperPrinters · 9/12/2026 · Source: indianprinterpublisher.com
A new Wan-Ifra Asia report surveying 42 media professionals across 12 Asian markets finds newsrooms are accelerating AI adoption and digital audience growth, but significant challenges remain. While two-thirds of newsrooms now permit generative AI use, most applications focus on efficiency tasks like proofreading and transcription rather than content creation, and 65% of respondents distrust AI output quality. Staffing shortages, declining print readership, and dependence on social platforms for audience reach continue to complicate the path to sustainable revenue.
