Can AI replace the news editor? Not entirely. 📰 Julie Pace, Executive Editor at the Associated Press, took the stage at #WebSummit to explain why the role of an editor goes far beyond editing words on a page. It's about empathy, recognising when a journalist in the field needs a break, and connecting the dots in ways only a human can.
