Automated processes such as artificial intelligence, algorithms and natural language generation not only penetrate the world of journalism in all its aspects but also significantly change the relationships between organizations, journalists and news consumers. Discussions and fears that started with the "first thought" that the algorithmic order will eliminate the need for journalists are moving towards the direction that the gains to be made will reduce the workload of journalists and mediate the emergence of a more creative environment. The study is designed to evaluate the general situation that emerges with robot journalism, in the journalism world surrounded by many digital world objects. The purpose of this descriptive study is to make things understandable in the world of journalism surrounded by concepts such as artificial intelligence, algorithm and natural language generation. It seeks an answer to the question of what robot journalism will mean for both professionals and individuals and society. The study was shaped in line with the basic view that journalism is not “activities that can be realized through algorithms and artificial intelligence, devoid of human creativity and values”. The most important point that makes robotic processes meaningful and necessary is that journalists cannot cope with the huge data piles created in the online environment. In this sense, it will change the role of journalists and create an opportunity for longer-term investigative journalism products where journalists can add more value. The new online environment created with artificial intelligence and algorithm systems is of interest to society and people. Legal and ethical social risks necessitate the production of "policy" in this regard. How and by whom the digital data of all individuals and institutions, from individual to social, including freedom and confidentiality, on the one hand, will be processed, what purpose it will serve, where ethical boundaries begin and where they end, consists of issues too deep and complex to be left to the conscience of algorithms.
