How Journalists Used AI to Cover the Epstein Files

About this session

You've heard about the Epstein Files, but do you know how reporters used AI to cover the story? Three CNN journalists will explain how they used AI to analyze 3.5 million documents from the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. The talk will explore how new AI-powered tools allowed journalists to smartly sift through a massive dataset in ways that weren't possible just a few years ago, to uncover new stories. We'll also explore the limits of these tools, and the continued importance of human verification. The discussion will be of interest for journalists, lawyers, investigators of all sorts, and anyone who followed one of the most explosive news stories of the year.
