AI-powered virtual news anchor makes debut in Kuwait
ANKARA (AA) – A Kuwaiti newspaper has introduced a virtual news anchor as part of a trial aimed at utilizing artificial intelligence in journalism.
The anchor was named Fedha, a classic Kuwait name meaning silver, and appeared on the Twitter account of Kuwait News website.
The introduction of the virtual news anchor marks a significant step in the development of artificial intelligence in media in the Arab world.
Fedha wore a white shirt and a black jacket, speaking in fluent Arabic.
“I am Fedha, the first AI news anchor in Kuwait, working at the Kuwait News media organization. What kind of news do you prefer? Let’s hear your opinions,” she said.
The virtual news anchor is still in the testing phase.
Artificial intelligence technology has gained momentum in various sectors and its role is expected to grow in the near future.
