Therefore, the given paper investigates how those working in the journalistic field in Germany and the U.S. evaluate AI-usage in political reporting. Scopes, contexts, and opportunities, as well as risks of the technologies are considered. Eleven interviews with experts from leading news organizations were conducted and analyzed using a qualitative content analysis, focusing on comparisons between the two countries. Results show varying strategies of AI implementation within the two countries, with election coverage being the predominant political topic reported on with the help of AI. Furthermore, the findings show that AI could possibly free journalists from routine tasks, and allows for more in-depth and large-scale research, which in turn could lead to an increase in the qualitative standard of political journalism.
