Imagine a world where journalists are replaced by robots that continually follow and pester politicians and the powerful with insightful questions, realtime fact-checking and unassailable arguments 24x7. And with empathy.

I'm not advocating for this.

But, it I can imagine this happening, it could probably happen.

Time for journalists to be proactive and own this creative destruction. Or else they will continue to be victimized by this trend.
