We don't wanna replace them as the end goal. We simply have repetitive tasks that could be automated. Whether that automation will, in fact, replace journalists or assist them. Is another problem that depends on your specific implementation details and economics. For our company specific use. Hiring a writer to be assisted by our robots would just add unnecessary cost to the process and delay to the end user experience. Versus pretty much little to no gain in quality. We only need a simple transformation from structured data to narrated english, and we want lots of it to be delivered instantly to our users. It just makes more sense for applications like ours to have robots replace humans.
