Covering the Planet with the Tools That Tax It: AI for Climate, Science and Environmental Journalists

AI is both a tool transforming newsrooms and a story-shaping force in public life. How should journalists approach both with rigor?

Join us for a one-hour session with journalist and SF State University Professor Yumi Wilson. We'll talk about AI using the solutions journalism framework. We'll examine what AI actually does in newsrooms (response), what the evidence shows about its costs and benefits (evidence), what reporters are learning about its best uses (insight) and where AI falls short (limitations). You'll come away with a clearer understanding of how AI is shaping journalism worldwide and a practical prompting structure you can start using on the beat.
