Disclosure: Use of AI in Content Creation

At John Lothian News, we are committed to delivering accurate, insightful, and engaging content to our readers. To support this goal, we use advanced language AI technology, such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT, as a tool in our writing and editing processes. Other AI platforms the JLN team may use include Perplexity AI, Claude or Grammarly.

ChatGPT and other platforms are AI models trained on a diverse range of internet text, including news articles, literature, and other sources. It helps our team generate ideas, suggest improvements, and draft and refine articles, headlines, and other content.

While AI supports our content creation process, human editors ultimately review, edit, and approve all content before publication. We prioritize journalistic integrity, fact-checking, and adherence to our editorial standards in all our articles.

It is also crucial to recognize that while AI can provide valuable assistance, it is not infallible and may occasionally generate errors or inaccuracies. Therefore, our editorial team exercises critical judgment and discretion in evaluating and refining the content produced with the assistance of AI technology.

We believe responsible use of AI technology enhances our ability to deliver high-quality journalism and better serve our audience. Transparency and accountability are central to our practices, and we are committed to providing clear disclosures regarding the use of AI in our content creation process.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the use of AI or our editorial practices, please do not hesitate to contact us.
