UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk said this year's World Press Freedom Day serves as a stark reminder that media repression is growing, even as AI rapidly transforms how information is produced, distributed, and consumed.
While acknowledging the potential benefits of AI for journalism, Türk cautioned that the technology poses serious risks to press freedom.
"AI-based algorithms often dictate what we see, shaping our opinions and perceptions of reality. Politicians use AI to weaponize disinformation and advance their own agendas," Türk said Friday in a message marking World Press Freedom Day.
