The premise
AI can draft tiered disclosure language scaled to AI involvement, but the editorial standard is owned by the masthead.
What AI does well here
- Draft three tiers of AI-involvement disclosure for different story types.
- Generate placement guidelines (top, byline, footer) with rationale.
What AI cannot do
- Decide what level of AI involvement crosses your masthead's ethics line.
- Defend disclosure choices in a public-trust crisis.
