Ethics Policy
Transparency and integrity in AI journalism
Core Ethical Principles
Editorial Independence
Editorial decisions are independent of commercial influence and vendor relationships.
Community First
We prioritize the interests of readers, practitioners, and the broader public.
Full Disclosure
We disclose relevant relationships including consulting, funding, equity, data access, and compute credits.
No Promotion for Compensation
We do not accept payment, gifts, or privileges to influence coverage. Sponsored content is clearly labeled.
Conflicts of Interest
Prohibited Activities
- Accepting compensation or special access in exchange for positive coverage
- Undisclosed paid consulting for companies we cover
- Owning significant equity or tokens in companies or projects we report on without disclosure
- Serving on boards or advisory roles without disclosure
- Accepting restricted model access or sizable compute credits that could influence coverage
Independence Safeguards
Separation of Editorial and Business
Editorial operates independently from commercial and advertising decisions.
No Pay-for-Play
Sponsored placements are labeled; no paid editorial coverage.
Gift & Access Policy
We avoid accepting gifts; demo access must be disclosed if materially relevant.
