Transparency and Accountability in Our Newsroom
At Alaska News, we understand the importance of trust and credibility in our community. That’s why we’re committed to transparency and accountability in our newsroom. Our AI-powered tools are designed to augment human journalism, not replace it.
What We Draft and What Humans Do
Our AI system is trained to generate article drafts based on a wide range of sources. However, these drafts are reviewed and edited by human journalists before publication. This ensures that the final product meets our high standards for accuracy, fairness, and clarity.
What’s Disclosed on Every Article
We believe in full transparency, which is why we disclose the following information on every article:
- The sources used in the article, including links to primary sources whenever possible.
- A clear indication of what’s been drafted by AI and what’s been edited or written by a human journalist.
- A link to our AI policy, so readers can understand how we use AI in our newsroom.
What We Won’t Do
We’re committed to maintaining the highest standards of journalism, and that means we won’t use AI to:
- Generate clickbait headlines or sensationalized content.
- Manipulate or fabricate information to support a particular agenda.
- Suppress or censor information that might be uncomfortable or inconvenient for our readers.
We believe that transparency and accountability are essential to building trust with our community. By being open about our use of AI and our editorial processes, we hope to demonstrate our commitment to fair, accurate, and unbiased reporting.
At Alaska News, we’re dedicated to serving our community with the highest quality journalism possible. If you have any questions or concerns about our AI policy, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
