Narrative Science sells computer-generated news and reports. It summarizes sporting events based on statistical data from the game. It also creates financial reports and real estate analyses. Automated Insights generates personalized recaps and previews for Yahoo Sports Fantasy Football.

Yseop, uses AI to turn structured data into natural language comments and recommendations. Yseop writes financial reports, executive summaries, personalized sales or marketing documents and more in multiple languages, including English, Spanish, French, and German.

TALESPIN made up stories similar to the fables of Aesop. The program started with a set of characters who wanted to achieve certain goals. The story narrated their attempts to satisfy these goals.[citation needed] Mark Riedl and Vadim Bulitko asserted that the essence of storytelling was experience management, or "how to balance the need for a coherent story progression with user agency, which is often at odds".

While AI storytelling focuses on story generation (character and plot), story communication also received attention. In 2002, researchers developed an architectural framework for narrative prose generation. They faithfully reproduced text variety and complexity on stories such as Little Red Riding Hood. In 2016, a Japanese AI co-wrote a short story and almost won a literary prize.

South Korean company Hanteo Global uses a journalism bot to write articles.

Literary authors are also exploring uses of AI. An example is David Jhave Johnston's work ReRites (2017-2019), where the poet created a daily rite of editing the poetic output of a neural network to create a series of performances and publications.

Sports Writing[edit]

In 2010, artificial intelligence used baseball stats to automatically generate news. This was launched by The Big Ten Network using a software from Narrative Science.[1]

After being unable to cover all of Minor League Baseball with a team of humans, Associated Press collaborated with Automated Insights to create game recaps that were automated by artificial intelligence in 2016.[2]

Artificial intelligence has been used in Brazil by UOL to not only produce news but produce it with words that are commonly searched on Google.[3]

El Pais, a Spanish news site that covers many things including sports, allows users to make comments on each news article. They use the Perspective API to moderate these comments and if it deems a comment to be toxic, the commenter will be forced to change it in order to publish their comment.[4]

In 2020, Reuters partnered with Symthesia to launch the first news summarization service that was fully automated by AI. This is a completely a virtual news reporter with a human image. The content it produced included videos, photos, live game data, and commentary. [5]

A local Dutch media group used AI to create automatic coverage of amateur soccer, set to cover 60,000 games in just a single season. NDC partnered with United Robots to create this algorithm and cover what would’ve never been able to be done before without a large human team.[6]

Lede AI has been used in 2023 to take scores from high school football games to generate stories automatically for the local news paper. This was met with a lot of criticism from readers for the very robotic diction that was published. With some descriptions of games being a "close encounter of the athletic kind," readers were not pleased and let the publishing company, Gannett, know on social media. Gannett has since halted their use of Lede AI until they come up with a solution for what they called an experiment.[7]
