What 'AI-assisted' actually means in our newsroom – a worked example

Every article on Dailytechwire that used an AI tool carries a disclosure box. This piece explains exactly what that box does and does not mean.

We use machine assistance for three things: translating source documents, transcribing interviews, and summarising long filings for a reporter to verify. We do not use it to generate published prose.

The checklist

Before an AI-assisted tag goes on, an editor confirms a human wrote the article, a human verified every translated quote against the source, and no generated text reached the page unedited.
