AI Usage Policy
Last updated: 14 July 2026
AIWeekly is an AI-native publication. We are transparent about where AI is used, where humans are always in the loop, and what we will never use AI for.
What AI does at AIWeekly
- Monitors trusted sources for newsworthy stories and ranks them by editorial priority.
- Drafts articles from vetted sources, following our house style.
- Generates hero images, tables of contents and FAQ blocks.
- Suggests internal links and related articles.
What humans do
- Control publication: from 18 August 2026, new AI-drafted articles must pass AIWeekly's recorded editorial publication gate before an editor can approve them to go live.
- Set editorial priorities and choose which topics we cover.
- Own all corrections, retractions and reader complaints.
- Vet all sources included in the newsroom's trusted-source list.
What we don't use AI for
- Fabricating quotes or attributing statements to real people.
- Generating photorealistic images of real, identifiable individuals.
- Producing content designed to mislead about who wrote or funded it.
Disclosure
Every article carries the author line "AIWeekly Editorial" or a named editor. From 18 August 2026, new AI-drafted articles must pass AIWeekly's recorded editorial publication gate before publication; we do not claim that every article published before that date was individually human-reviewed.
