Norwegian newsrooms face GenAI risks during election coverage

A study examining the use of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) in Norwegian newsrooms during the 2025 parliamentary election revealed significant challenges and risks. Despite ambitious plans for audience-facing GenAI services, practical and technological hurdles led to the adoption of more mundane internal uses.
