AI tools may assist with outlining, language cleanup, classification, and repetitive drafting tasks. Human editors remain responsible for the published decision, source checking, factual accuracy, originality, usefulness, accessibility, and corrections.
What the workflow requires
- Material claims are linked to sources or marked as inference or unknown.
- AI output is not treated as evidence by itself.
- Editors review for copied or near-rewritten competitor language, unsupported metrics, fabricated credentials, and overconfident GEO claims.
- Corrections are recorded when a material error is found.
This policy does not claim that the publication never uses AI assistance.
