Awareness and perception of artificial intelligence operationalized integration in news media industry and society.

This study attempts to determine a correlation effect between people's perception and awareness of the operationalization of artificial intelligence in their everyday lives and in the production, presentation, and publication of news media in the U.S. By looking at the effect individual characteristics may have on a person's perception and awareness of AI operationalized for news media and looking at whether perception and/or awareness of AI operationalized in a person's daily life affects their perception and awareness of AI operationalized for news media, we seek to find correlation between these two factors. The research relies on Actor-network theory, the MAIN (Modality, Agency, Interactivity, Navigability) Model, and utilizes a convenience sample survey method using the MTurk participant platform.
