Mediahuis launches groundbreaking AI-driven sports site Resport.nl

Imagine this: you visit your favorite sports news site, and every article you read is created by AI. This is now a reality! On August 15, Mediahuis launched Resport.nl, a sports news site that operates entirely on AI technology. This innovation utilizes a combination of ANP sports reports and the ChatGPT4 algorithm for continuous reporting.

The establishment of Resport has emerged from Mediahuis's profound curiosity about the optimal application of AI in journalism. From this curiosity, insights have developed after extensive experimentation and testing, contributing to the creation of this site. Within Mediahuis's Digital Platforms department, which includes titles like Manners and Culy, AI has already played an integral role. Now, with Resport.nl, sports articles can go live without human intervention. However, to ensure reliability, daily checks are conducted by experienced editors.

What makes Resport.nl most unique is how it employs AI. ChatGPT4 creates catchy headlines for articles, ensures correct categorization, provides the right tags, and generates SEO-friendly URLs. The near future also promises the addition of AI-generated biographies, rankings, and backgrounds. Amarins de Boer, Head of Content at Mediahuis, believes that this AI integration increases efficiency, allowing journalists more time for in-depth stories. This is just the beginning; with the knowledge gained from Resport, the implementation of AI across other Digital Platforms websites will only increase.
