The world is full of news now a days. But the newsrooms and channels have their style to have their followers. Since digital era is emerging anchors are aligned with AI and in future AI may align as Anchor. This work examines the role of AI digital anchors in enhancing the user experience of news broadcasting. The study analyzed the interaction of AI anchors with the audience in live news programs. The findings showed that the AI virtual anchors are preferred by the media houses because it reduces the cost of operations. The AI anchors can imitate behaviors and use them to project the audience's needs. The designers have also ensured that AI anchors can use the voices of human anchors, making them more connected to the viewers. However, AI is still limited in its applications may increase the cost of production.
