写稿机器人上岗 1秒完成一篇春运报道大纲

Guangzhou-based Southern Metropolis Daily published its first story written by a robot.

总部位于广州的《南方都市报》近日发表了第一篇由机器人撰写的稿件。

The article was 300 characters long and focused on the Spring Festival travel rush.

这篇稿件篇幅为300字，并聚焦于春运潮问题。

Its author, Xiao Nan, took only a second to finish writing the piece and is able to write both short stories and longer reports, according to Wan Xiaojun, a professor at Peking University who leads the team studying and developing such robots.

据带领团队对这种机器人进行研究和开发的北京大学教授万小军介绍，稿件的作者小南仅用1秒钟便完成了，且小南既能写短稿也能写长篇报道。

"When compared with the staff reporters, Xiao Nan has a stronger data analysis capacity and is quicker at writing stories," he said.

万小军表示：“相较人类记者，小南的数据分析能力更强，写稿速度更快。”

"But it does not mean intelligent robots will soon be able to completely replace reporters."

“但这并不意味着智能机器人将在短时间内完全取代记者。”

At present, robots are unable to conduct face-to-face interviews, cannot respond intuitively with follow-up questions and don't have the ability to select the news angle from an interview or conversation, Wan said.

万小军称，目前，机器人还无法进行面对面的采访，不能凭直觉追问后续问题，也不具备根据采访或对话内容选取新闻报道角度的能力。

"But robots will be able to act as a supplement, helping newspapers and related media, as well as editors and reporters," he said.

他说道：“但是机器人可以作为一种补充，帮助到报纸和相关媒体，以及编辑和记者。”
