Thailand trains new generation of reporters to tackle AI-era misinformationListen to this articleThailand’s major media organisations have launched an intensive training camp to equip 60 university students with AI literacy and strong newsroom ethics, aiming to prepare a new generation of journalists capable of countering misinformation in the digital age. Thai Media Fund deputy manager Dr. Chamnan Ngammaneeudom added that digital platforms have blurred the line between professional journalists and everyday smartphone users. He hopes the workshop will spark a new generation of creators who can bring evidence‑based reporting to the public. The programme concluded with hands‑on group work, where mixed teams created digital content addressing AI‑related cyber threats without violating privacy or ethical standards. This year’s Young Digital News Providers programme is supported by the Thai Media Fund, NSTDA, True Corporation, Thai Oil, the Bank of Thailand, Boonrawd Trading and the SCG Foundation.
