The Washington Post Unveils 'Ask The Post AI' Chatbot

The new AI tool provides answers based on the newspaper's articles since 2016, aiming to enhance user engagement and information access.

'Ask The Post AI' is an experimental chatbot that uses The Washington Post's articles to answer user questions.
The AI tool only provides responses if relevant articles exist, reducing the risk of misinformation.
Users can access the chatbot without a subscription, though reading linked articles requires one.
The tool is part of The Washington Post's broader efforts to integrate AI in journalism, following previous AI initiatives.
Future updates may include incorporating video, audio, and opinion pieces into the AI's responses.
