Abstract :This study examines the evolving landscape of journalism in the context of Artificial Intelligence (AI) integration and its implications for journalism education. The purpose of this article is to investigate how AI is redefining both the hard and soft skills required by journalists, necessitating an updated educational curriculum that balances technical skills with foundational journalistic values, employing a comprehensive literature review as its methodology. The importance of this research lies in its potential to guide educational institutions in preparing journalists to navigate the challenges and opportunities presented by AI in news production effectively. As AI transforms journalism by automating tasks and enhancing data analysis, it requires journalists to develop a new skill set that includes advanced data journalism capabilities and maintains the core journalistic values of ethical discernment, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence. This article advocates for a multidisciplinary curriculum that not only equips journalists with AI technical knowledge but also emphasizes ethical judgment and creativity. It concludes with a call for collaboration among educators, technologists, and industry practitioners to forge an educational environment that prepares journalists for an AI-enhanced media landscape.
