The BBC is apparently testing a new chatbot tool with which reporters can insert reusable bots into their articles, Nieman Lab reports. “In a few minutes, a BBC reporter can input the text of an article, define the questions users can click, and publish the bot, which can then be reused and added to any other relevant article,” it writes. “BBC reporters can even repurpose existing Q&A explainers into bot-based conversations.”
