The Times established a newsroom AI Committee to provide guidance on the responsible use of artificial intelligence while remaining firm in our values of accuracy and accountability. Reporters have long used AI-powered tools for workflow tasks, like transcribing interview audio. As AI capabilities advance, we will explore ways it can empower our work. Examples might include using AI to parse large datasets or aid in translation. AI use requires a critical eye and oversight. As we would with any source, we treat its insights as unverified until proven, and reporters may not use AI to directly craft content published in the Times. When AI-powered reporting or analysis is key to a story, we commit to offering transparency to readers about why and how such tools were used. There’s a fine balance — we must interrogate and explore this powerful technology, but we also must keep in mind its biases, privacy concerns and potential for errors. AI tools will not interfere with our integrity as independent writers and thinkers.
We have strict, separate standards for vendors that provide AI-driven products. At the Times, these products aid in producing stories on weather alerts and real estate transactions. We disclose to readers when we use AI to compile information or produce stories via vendors. None of these tools are designed to replace our journalists, now or in the future.
