About

M. M. Lukina is a leading scholar in digital journalism and media transformation, whose work critically examines the evolving relationship between human journalists and automated technologies. Her most-cited paper, "Working Practices of Journalists: Humans or Robots" (2020), with 4 citations, investigates the profound shifts in journalistic workflows as algorithms, artificial intelligence, and robotic systems increasingly assume tasks once performed by humans. This research underscores the urgent need for the journalism profession to understand and adapt to these technological disruptions, highlighting the tension between efficiency and the irreplaceable human elements of reporting. Lukina’s contributions lie in mapping the changing landscape of news production, offering a framework for analyzing how automation reshapes editorial decision-making, content creation, and professional identity. Her work is particularly valuable for students and researchers exploring the intersection of media studies, technology, and labor, as it provides a nuanced perspective on the future of journalism in an era of rapid digitalization. By addressing both the opportunities and challenges posed by automation, Lukina has established herself as a key voice in contemporary media scholarship.
