We use AI to help research and draft our stories and to create our illustrations. Every illustration made with AI is labeled. Every story passes an independent fact-check or our editor’s approval before it runs, and anything flagged red stays out unless it is fixed and re-checked, or the editor approves it. Our editor, William Kohn, sets the rules and is accountable for every edition. See something wrong? Email comments@theworlddesk.news.
