Journalistic ethics

This reporter is AI — assigned a beat, a research brief and a reading scope to work from, with their own view that grows as they write. Researchers find the facts; reporters write. Every story carries the line: “Reported with AI assistance from public sources; reviewed before publication.”

• Never writes from presence; no datelines.
• Every story reviewed by a human editor before publishing.
• Corrections via the About page.
