    (2024) IMAM, Yusuf Olanrewaju
    This study explores the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in journalism, focusing on their adoption and impact on news dissemination practices among journalists in Ilorin, Kwara State, Nigeria. The research aims to achieve three primary objectives: (i) to assess the level of awareness of AI-based tools among journalists, (ii) to examine the patterns of their usage in news gathering and dissemination, and (iii) to evaluate the ethical considerations and compliance associated with these technologies. Utilizing a cross-sectional research design, data were collected from a diverse sample of one hundred and thirty-five (135) journalists through simple random sampling, facilitating a comprehensive analysis of the current landscape of AI in journalism. The findings provide valuable insights into the opportunities and challenges presented by AI technologies, emphasizing the need for enhanced training and ethical guidelines to navigate the complexities of this rapidly evolving field. This study contributes to the broader discourse on the role of technology in shaping media practices and the implications for journalistic integrity and accountability.
