AI Usage Policy
Last updated: 20 September 2026
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!This policy explains how CoreSignal uses artificial intelligence tools in producing our content, and the limits we place on that use. It should be read alongside our Editorial Policy and Fact-Checking Policy, which this page expands on.
1. Purpose of this policy
AI tools are increasingly part of how digital newsrooms research, draft, and publish content, and CoreSignal is no exception. We believe readers deserve to know, in clear terms, where and how we use these tools, and what safeguards are in place so that AI assistance never comes at the cost of accuracy.
2. Our core principle
AI is a tool our editorial team uses. It is not a substitute for editorial judgment, and it is never the final authority on what CoreSignal publishes. Every piece of content published under CoreSignal’s name is reviewed, fact-checked, and taken responsibility for by a human member of our editorial team, regardless of what tools were used to help produce it.
3. Where we use AI
Depending on the piece, our editorial team may use AI tools to assist with:
AI may assist with
- Research and background gathering
- First-draft writing, which is then edited by a person
- Translating content between English and Bengali
- Transcribing interviews or press briefings
- Summarising long government documents or notifications
- Language and grammar refinement
- Generating illustrative graphics or featured images, clearly not presented as photographs of real events
AI does not
- Decide what we choose to cover
- Verify facts on its own authority
- Publish content without human review
- Generate quotes or statements attributed to real people
- Determine corrections or editorial judgment calls
- Replace a journalist’s judgment on a developing story
4. Where we don’t use AI
We do not publish AI-generated content as a substitute for original reporting. We do not use AI to fabricate quotes, invent sources, or generate statistics that are then presented as fact. We do not use AI-generated images to depict real events, real people, or real places in a way that could mislead a reader into thinking they are looking at an actual photograph.
5. Human oversight & review
Every article, guide, or explainer published on CoreSignal, whether or not AI assisted its production, is reviewed by a member of our editorial team before publication. This includes checking the structure, tone, and factual claims against our editorial standards, consistent with our Editorial Policy.
6. Fact verification
AI-generated or AI-assisted text is not treated as a source of fact. Where AI tools are used in research or drafting, factual claims, particularly dates, figures, eligibility requirements, government scheme details, and examination information, are independently checked against reliable or official sources before publication, in line with our Fact-Checking Policy.
7. Translation between English & Bengali
CoreSignal publishes in both English and Bengali. AI tools may assist in producing a translated draft between the two languages, but translated content is reviewed by a person fluent in the relevant language before publication, to ensure meaning, nuance, and factual accuracy are preserved.
8. AI-assisted images
Where an article uses an AI-generated or AI-assisted illustration, such as a featured image for a general explainer, it is used as an illustrative graphic rather than as documentary evidence of a specific event. We do not use AI-generated imagery to fabricate visual “evidence” of news events, and any such image is not intended to be mistaken for a real photograph of the subject it accompanies.
9. Disclosure
We do not attach an individual AI-use disclosure to every article, in the same way most newsrooms don’t disclose every spell-checker, translation aid, or editing tool used in production. Instead, we disclose our practices openly through this policy, so readers always know how AI fits into our process. If you have a specific question about how a particular piece of content was produced, you’re welcome to ask us directly.
10. Accountability
CoreSignal remains fully responsible for the accuracy and presentation of everything published under its name, regardless of what tools were used in production. If AI-assisted content contains an error, it is treated and corrected the same way any other editorial error is, under our Fact-Checking Policy, not excused because a tool was involved in drafting it.
11. Changes to this policy
AI tools and industry practices are evolving quickly, and we expect this policy to be updated as our own use of these tools develops. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. We encourage readers to check back periodically.
