Popis: Regarding GPTs, there is a research gap since it is a new concept subjected to constant, fast, and unpredictable development. A broad spectrum of fields has been and will be impacted by GPTs directly or indirectly ; hence many research papers will be written on this topic in the future. News providers are under constant pressure to find ways of engaging consumers' attention due to the vast number of articles on AI and GPTs. Therefore, attractive, provocative, and often confusing, biased, or untrustworthy headlines are a gateway to news articles. Besides, these circumstances could lead to already seen and lived scenarios of COVID-19 pandemics. Media literacy skills are crucial for navigating the vast amounts of online information, especially regarding GPTs. They have become an essential topic in the media and the scientific community. Media literacy is the ability to access, analyze, and create media in various forms. It involves developing critical thinking skills to understand the different media types, including news articles. In the scope of interest of the study is the daily news portals' coverage of newspapers whose history of reporting important events is considered generally trustworthy. Due to the transnational line of research, eight newspapers were monitored and analyzed in four months (December 2022-March 2023). In qualitative research, futures techniques were applied: monitoring and content analysis review. The latter led to the trend method for detecting some micro trends. The study centered on examining three hundred and thirty newspapers articles from both the US (such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, and Los Angeles Times) and Europe (including British, French, and Croatian newspapers like The Times, Le Monde, Jutarnji List, and Večernji list).
