This page sets out the rules an entry has to meet before it goes on Work AI Brief.
The run comes first
We publish an entry only after the task has actually been run. If a run wasn’t carried out, or the record of it is incomplete, there is no entry. We don’t describe results we expect, results someone else reported, or results a vendor claims.
What gets recorded
- The tool, its version or plan name as shown on the day, and any setting we changed.
- The date of the run.
- Every request as typed. We don’t tidy a request after the fact to make the output look better.
- The output, or the relevant part of it when it is long.
- The check: what we compared the output against, and how many items were right, wrong or missing.
Test material
We use public documents, such as government publications, or files we create for the purpose and label as made up. We don’t put client, customer or employee data into any tool for an entry.
Small numbers stay small
Most runs are done once or a handful of times. The entry says how many. We don’t turn five timings into a percentage, and we don’t call one result typical.
Facts about products
Prices, limits and data-handling terms come from the vendor’s own documentation, linked in the entry with the date we read it. News coverage may tell us that something changed; it isn’t our source for what changed.
Use of AI in writing
We draft with the help of AI tools. Every article is reviewed by Dlrow Editorial before it is published. Dlrow Editorial is the publisher’s editorial desk; it isn’t a person’s name.
Independence
No vendor pays for coverage, supplies the wording of an entry, or sees it before publication. If we ever use a free account or credit supplied by a vendor, the entry will say so in its setup section. See the Advertising Disclosure.
Dates and updates
The date on an entry is the day it was published. If we rerun a task with a newer version, we either add a dated section to the entry or write a new one. We don’t change an old result silently.
Corrections
Errors are fixed and noted at the foot of the entry. The Corrections page explains how.
