Our colleagues @c_deane and @MonicaRAnders walked a packed house through four questions their organization should ask when determining how to use #AI when considering machines as an audience. @pewresearch. pewresearch.org/internet/202…
At #Comnet26 and EVP @c_deane is keeping it real. What’s working and what’s not as you try to make your website more machine-readable? @pewresearch
Q: Can you guess which sector people are most positive about #AI? A: medical care. #Comnet26 @pewresearch
Time for @pewresearch to share first how the American public feels about #AI. 71% Americans believe AI will lead to fewer jobs. pewresearch.org/global/2026/… #Comnet26
Never disappoints! #Comnet26 kicks off with keynote by Pulitzer-prize winning author Percival Everett. “Reading fiction is how we learn empathy and how to talk to each other.” Talking about narrative change, creativity and storytelling. @TheComNetwork
Good job, @OpenAI with developing a trusted contact feature: mashable.com/article/chatgpt…. #PreventSuicide
So excited to be among these heroes who’ve dedicated their time and talent to supporting children and victims of abuse at the 30th anniv of @SafeShoresDC #ThePowerOfPlay
The future of journalism does not belong to the biggest entities. We need each other: institutions and journalists. And it must include shared commitment to be about the people. -Independent journalist Noor Tagouri at #KMF2026 @knightfdn
Just released from @pewresearch, a study funded by the Pew-Knight Initiative. pewresearch.org/journalism/2…
So much has changed with how Americans experience news. News is no longer a shared experience. People encounter the news incidentally, not by seeking it out. -@katmatsa @pewresearch #KMF2026
Curious humans seek out other humans to cut through the noise and make sense of a world with information overload. #KMF2026
Jonathan Kanter, former asst AG at #KMF forum offers these early observations:
1. Aggregation leads to brand flattening
2 Platforms sell audience, not content
3 GUI is on its way out.
Simple, important advice at #KMF2026 @knightfdn when it comes to AI: “Use a tool - don’t be one.” -Former Asst AG Jonathan Kanter.
Nonprofit news is past the proof-of-concept phase. It’s working. Now the task is to scale … and to reframe that local news is a public good. ~Sarabeth Berman from @JournalismProj at #KMF2026.
A nation that takes democracy seriously must seriously invest in public media. -Tim Isgitt, CEO Public Media Company @knightfdn #KMF
This morning, we welcomed leaders to our largest Knight Media Forum yet. Journalists, civic leaders, entrepreneurs, funders, scholars and artists—you all represent a world @knightfdn touches.
“We believe Democracy is a a daily practice, not a spectator sport.” The power still is with the people. @mwadsworth @knightfdn
“Minnesota’s crisis is America’s crisis.” Knight Fdn president @mwadsworth opens #KMF setting the scene with the challenges experienced around the country and threats to the 1st Amendment. @pewresearch
So fun to see all data from #PewKnightInitiative on the big screens at KMF. Excited for a full day! Check out all the reports from our first 2+ years: pewresearch.org/collections/…. @pewresearch
