Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the journalism industry worldwide, bringing forth new tools that can revolutionize how information is gathered, produced, and disseminated. AI’s ability to assist with data analysis, content generation, real-time transcription, audience analysis, and fact-checking has proven valuable in modern newsrooms. In the context of Nepal, a country with a vibrant yet resource-constrained media landscape, the integration of AI offers both immense opportunities and significant challenges. This study explores the various ways AI tools are impacting Nepali journalism and the ethical, professional, and infrastructural issues that come with it. Drawing from a survey of 200 journalists across Nepal and several qualitative interviews, the study outlines current AI usage, perceived benefits, and the barriers journalists face in embracing AI. A comprehensive review of global, regional, and local literature complements the analysis. The study concludes with practical recommendations for ethical and effective AI integration into Nepali journalism, underscoring the need for local innovation, journalist training, and strong regulatory frameworks.
