JAKARTA: One person has died in a large fire at a cooking oil factory near the Indonesian capital, with around 20 firefighting trucks at the site trying to contain the blaze, local fire authorities said on Friday (Nov 1).

Malaysian Press Institute president Datuk Yong Soo Heong asserted that the skills of reporters are still very much needed, particularly in providing a human touch and real-world observations.

Commenting on the challenges AI poses to the media industry, Yong said media literacy is important, especially in empowering news consumers to critically assess AI-generated content. He noted that the use of AI in the media industry cannot be dismissed, as it enables media practitioners to be more productive and conduct research more quickly.
