There is a saying “a journalistic cliche. This is when the material is based on a scheme of which are old nauseam verbal expressions and verbal constructions. On the one hand it right and “win-win”, on the other – just bored. Obviously, it is by such methods using robot journalist, which are designed in the Laboratory of Computer Science of Intelligent Systems in Tokyo (ISI).

Although its main function – still a standalone video transmission on a given topic. Robot removes not everything, but selectively. As soon as he noticed some changes in the environment, he begins to take pictures or shoot at the camera, self vykladyvaya fruits of his “journalistic creativity” in the Internet. However, if the robot detects a number of people alive, he can ask a couple of standard questions for a better “understanding” of what is happening. Received the answer, it automatically converts the recorded human speech and using the same Internet trying to “understand” heard, to tell us about it, people.

There also appears to small text material – most likely, the information plan. About the author’s text as it is to judge the robot is not necessary yet, but the fact is emotion: is soon reporters will not work? The only thing that still leaves hope in this regard – an individual approach, the author’s opinion and still attempt to escape from the cliches which have been accumulated one of the oldest professions.

As robots journalists, the experience of using them in practice already. In 2002, a couple of mechanized TV reporters, created by MIT covered the events of the war and Afghanistan. True, they had a remote control – a fundamental difference from the Japanese robot, which operates completely independently.
