Santo Domingo, DR \u2014<\/strong> The event, an initiative of Grupo de Diarios Am\u00e9rica, took place on Thursday and Friday at the headquarters of Grupo de Medios Corripio, on San Mart\u00edn Avenue in the Dominican capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The seminar program featured a series of lectures and panels on the transformation in the field of communication brought about by the development of artificial intelligence. Activities included debates on the challenges of contemporary journalism and opportunities for direct interaction between participants and speakers, with a view to enhancing the impact and quality of journalistic work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Miguel Franjul, director of List\u00edn Diario, welcomed journalists and speakers from across the region, highlighting the importance of coming together to discuss a topic that is redefining the foundations of the journalistic profession.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn a world where change is the only constant, coming together to analyze, learn, and debate this phenomenon is not an option, but a strategic necessity for the future of our newspapers and for the vitality of the independent journalism we represent,\u201d Franjul told those present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Franjul noted that the training sessions were led by 15 high-level speakers, whose credentials in academia and journalism gave them unquestionable authority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTheir knowledge will be the compass that helps us adjust our vision of the future, guiding us toward a necessary, intelligent, and productive convergence with artificial intelligence,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GDA-CAF opened this edition with an introduction to advances in artificial intelligence worldwide, presented by Professor Renato Gonz\u00e1lez and Natalia Zuazo, a senior consultant at UNESCO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Argentine consultant \u00c1lvaro Liuzzi and Karen La Hoz, from La Silla Vac\u00eda, addressed strategies for implementing artificial intelligence in the media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Juan Carlos Simo, from La Naci\u00f3n in Argentina; Alicia Rojas and \u00c1ngel Pilares, from El Comercio in Peru; and Dimitrius Dantas, from O Globo in Brazil, spoke about the use of artificial intelligence in videos and other audiovisual projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regional network of leading newspapers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This event is organized by the Grupo de Diarios Am\u00e9rica (GDA), an alliance of the 12 most important and influential newspapers in Latin America. Founded in 1991, the GDA seeks to promote independent journalism and strengthen democracy and innovation in the region through collaboration and the exchange of experiences among its members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This regional network includes the leading newspapers in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Peru, Colombia, Uruguay, Mexico, Venezuela, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

List\u00edn Diario has been part of the Grupo de Diarios Am\u00e9rica since 2023. It is the oldest and most prestigious newspaper in the Dominican Republic, with an uninterrupted history since its founding in 1889.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The XXIII GDA CAF25 Seminar is intended to be an essential space for expanding knowledge and strengthening the capabilities of the journalistic community in a constantly changing environment, marked by economic, social, and technological challenges that demand innovation, accuracy, and social commitment in communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Practical workshops: AI does not work alone<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the second day, the media delved into testing artificial intelligence tools that journalists must use to avoid erroneous data in content creation or confirmation, as well as strategies to capture the audience\u2019s attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They also discussed the latent reality represented by AI Overview and AI Mode for media content, as well as the digital well-being and mental health of journalists in the face of catastrophic coverage and the flow of information in a newsroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ezra Eeman, from Wan-Ifra, was followed by David Sancha, from Hiberus Media, who spoke about how the concept of news is changing with the emergence of AI and about the strategies the media can apply to coexist in the new ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the same topic, Alicia Rojas and \u00c1ngel Pilares from the Peruvian newspaper El Comercio spoke about \u201cMedia Lab,\u201d a department launched in February this year, through which, in addition to incorporating AI projects, they have trained more than 130 journalists in Peru.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The training also addressed how to boost digital subscriptions, a topic that drew on the experience of El Pa\u00eds with Luc\u00eda Gonz\u00e1lez and The New York Times with Claudio Cabrera, vice president of the media outlet\u2019s sports section, The Athletic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carlos Mart\u00ednez, from El Nuevo D\u00eda in Puerto Rico, expanded on the applications used by that media outlet to streamline journalistic work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digital well-being and mental health<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Martina Rua, an Argentine journalist and teacher, emphasized that \u201cthere is no quality journalism without healthy journalists,\u201d highlighting the importance of mental health in newsrooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rua emphasizes the importance of normalizing mental health and teaching reporters to disconnect when necessary, because \u201cthere is no quality journalism without healthy journalists.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the same topic, Mexican psychologist and therapist C\u00e9sar Montesano V\u00e1squez from Vita Activa provided tools for recognizing and managing stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He pointed out that stress is linked to the journalism profession, and the more committed one feels to the information, the greater the burden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among his recommendations for managing stress, the expert encouraged breathing, hydration, healthy eating, recognizing emotions and letting them out, exercise, and rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The training continued with practical workshops on tools, led by Mariana Alvarado, in which journalists learned how to create better prompts to avoid data errors in Google Gemini and how to use NotebookKLM and Pinpoint to organize and analyze data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, \u00c1lvaro Liuzzi, from IA First, created practical exercises for professionals to design solutions to problems they encounter in the newsroom and improve information flow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
