ABSTRACT

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into video production is reshaping journalism education, necessitating new pedagogical and ethical approaches. This study surveys video journalism educators in the United States to assess familiarity with generative AI (GenAI) video tools, perceptions of ethical boundaries, and levels of curricular integration. Findings indicate cautious adoption: while educators support the use of GenAI for animations and background graphics, they express significant concern regarding synthetic news scenes and content alteration, emphasizing the need for transparency. Drawing on innovation theory, the study identifies GenAI as both sustaining and disruptive, highlighting gaps in educator preparedness and calling for the development of ethical guidelines and institutional support.
