I don't buy this. Maybe in the future in 20-30 years, but definetly not now. I got no idea where the prototype might be, but I don't see how you can build a robot that writes articles without ambient intelligence... journalism cases are really complex and you need a human intuition.

Maybe it would be great to collect information in a specialized case, but to make an article out of it? It's a whole different story!
