A Note on AI-Generated Articles:
We want real stories written by real humans. So please don’t send us articles that are wholly AI-generated. That said, some use of AI is acceptable. For example: Did you use AI to copy edit or smooth your style? Did it help you with research and organization? Did you prompt it to generate a first draft, which you then rewrote significantly? Those uses are, to varying degrees, valid. What we will reject is an article entirely written by AI.
Simply disclose to us how you wrote the piece, to what extent you used AI, and whether you double-checked facts and sources. We’ll consider whether the piece has value for our audience and what kind of disclosure we might need to add. Thank you for hearing us out.
