US: Website replaces anchors, reporters with virtual technology

A new website designed by the Intelligent Information Laboratory at Northwestern University is removing the need for humans in the news broadcasting and reporting process, according toNowToronto.

News at Seven "collects news stories from the web, edits them automatically and formats the content for artificial anchors," creating a complete editorial package, pulling relevant images and blogs from the web to "complement" the story.
