AI Policy

Zerionia works at the intersection of editorial content and product development. We use AI tools as part of our workflow. We consider it important to be explicit about how and where.

AI assistance never replaces editorial judgment. Every published piece is authored, reviewed, and approved by a human editor who takes responsibility for its accuracy and framing.

We use AI tools to assist with: drafting outlines, generating structural suggestions, reviewing code snippets for correctness, and accelerating research across large volumes of source material.

In some articles — particularly Lab notes — we may use AI to generate initial code examples that are then reviewed and tested by hand before publication.

All editorial decisions are human. The choice of subject, the angle, the conclusions, and the final language are written or substantially rewritten and approved by the editorial team.

All opinions, verdicts, and evaluations expressed on this site reflect human judgment. We do not publish AI-generated opinions as if they were our own.

Fact-checking is human. AI summaries of sources are cross-checked against originals before being relied upon.

When an article has been substantially co-written with AI assistance — meaning more than structural input — we disclose this at the article level.

Articles that use AI only for code generation, structural drafting, or grammar checking are not specifically labelled, as these uses are analogous to using a spell-checker or IDE.

Our AI usage policy is reviewed as the tools and our practices evolve. If our approach changes materially, we will update this page and note the change date below.
