AI Usage Policy

Effective Date: June 8, 2026

At The Press of Asia, we are transparent about how we use artificial intelligence in our newsroom. This policy outlines our approach and commitments.

  1. What AI We Use

We use AI tools for:

Research assistance: Gathering information from public sources to support story development.

Copy editing: Grammar, spelling, and readability improvements.

Headline optimization: Generating alternative headlines for SEO and engagement.

Image alt text: Generating descriptive alt text for accessibility.

Data analysis: Processing public data for charts and visualizations.

  1. What AI Does NOT Do

AI is never used for:

Writing complete news articles without human review and editing.

Generating quotes, sources, or attributions.

Creating fake facts, figures, or witness accounts.

Replacing human editorial judgment.

  1. Human Oversight

Every article published on The Press of Asia is reviewed and edited by a human journalist or editor before publication. AI-generated content is always verified, fact-checked, and edited.

  1. AI-Generated Images

If AI-generated images are used, they are clearly labeled as synthetic content.

  1. Accountability

The Editor-in-Chief is ultimately responsible for all content published on this platform, regardless of whether AI tools were used in preparation.
