AI Usage Policy

The Guardian Chronicle is committed to being transparent about how and where we use artificial intelligence. Our journalism is reported, written and edited by people; AI is a tool, never a substitute for human judgement or accountability.

Images

Most photographs are real news images, credited to their photographer or agency (e.g. PTI, IANS). Where an image is an illustration, representation, or AI-generated, it carries a visible “AI Image” or illustration credit so readers are never misled about what they are seeing. We do not present AI-generated imagery as documentary photography of real events.

Words

Articles are written and verified by our journalists. AI may assist with routine tasks — transcription, translation drafts, summaries or headline suggestions — but every published story is checked and signed off by a human editor, who is responsible for its accuracy.

What we will not do

• Publish fully AI-written articles without human verification and a human byline or desk attribution.
• Fabricate quotes, sources, or events using AI.
• Use AI to impersonate real people.

Corrections

If you believe AI-assisted content on our site is inaccurate or mislabelled, please write to grievances@theguardianchronicle.com. Corrections are logged in our Corrections Log.
