Vreekamp stressed on the importance of staying up to date on the use of AI and on continuous discussions related to ethics. in an answer to a question about whether AI will take away journalism jobs, he responded that there's a common belief that " you won't be replaced by AI, but you might be replaced by a person using AI."
