AI Replacing News Anchors by 2029
Artificial intelligence continues to improve in natural language generation, voice synthesis, and facial animation. Major networks are experimenting with AI-generated news segments and virtual presenters for niche audiences.
Challenges include viewer trust, ethical considerations, and legal implications. Full replacement of human anchors requires not only technology but also audience acceptance and regulatory compliance.
My prediction: By 2029, AI will likely assist anchors and handle automated reporting, but full replacement of human anchors at major networks is improbable due to the trust and engagement factor of live human hosts.
