The Kuwait Times has introduced the first AI news anchor in Kuwait named "Fedha." Abdullah Boftain, the deputy editor in chief for both outlets, stated that this is a test for new and innovative content.
A Kuwaiti media outlet has unveiled a virtual news presenter generated using artificial intelligence, with plans for it to read online bulletins.
"Fedha" appeared on the Twitter account of the Kuwait News website on Saturday as an image of a woman, her light-coloured hair uncovered, wearing a black jacket and white T-shirt.
"I'm Fedha, the first presenter in Kuwait who works with artificial intelligence at Kuwait News. What kind of news do you prefer? Let's hear your opinions," she said in classical Arabic.
The site is affiliated with the Kuwait Times, founded in 1961 as the Gulf region's first English-language daily.
Abdullah Boftain, deputy editor in chief for both outlets, said the move is a test of AI's potential to offer "new and innovative content".
