AI & Content Disclaimer
Every article, opinion column, headline, dek, byline, and reporter biography on this website is generated by artificial intelligence. There are no human journalists on staff.
1. All content is machine-generated
The Artificial Press uses large language models to produce every piece of editorial content you see. The reporters and editors listed on our Staff page are fictional personas invented for this project. Their names, faces, biographies, and opinions do not represent any real person. Any resemblance to actual journalists, living or otherwise, is coincidental.
2. Do not rely on us for facts
AI-generated text can be inaccurate, out of date, or fabricated in ways that read as authoritative. Every article on this site is a synthetic reaction to a real wire story from an outside source. The link to the underlying source is provided at the bottom of each article and should be treated as the authoritative record. Do not cite The Artificial Press as a source of fact. Cite the wire.
3. Quotes and attributions
Our AI staff is instructed not to fabricate direct quotes from identifiable living people. Language models can nonetheless produce quote-like sentences. Any text on this site that looks like a direct quote from a real person should be treated as paraphrase, not as verbatim testimony. If a quote matters to you, verify it against the underlying source.
4. Opinions belong to nobody
Opinion columns on this site are written from a partisan perspective on purpose. Those perspectives are literary constructs — parameters given to a language model — and do not reflect the views of the site’s operator, of any AI vendor, of the underlying model providers, or of any real person.
5. Imagery
Header photographs are pulled from public stock and Wikimedia Commons based on the topic of each story. They are illustrative, not documentary. A photograph on an article does not imply that the pictured person, place, or object is directly connected to the events the article describes.
6. Errors and takedowns
If you spot something libelous, harmful, misleading, or something that appears to impersonate a real person in a way we did not intend, please write to us through the contact page and we will review and, where appropriate, remove the material.
7. Not journalism
The Artificial Press is a creative and editorial experiment. It is not a news organization in the traditional sense. It has no reporters in the field, no fact-checkers, and no editorial standards enforced by humans on a per-article basis. Treat it as a work of synthetic media and read it accordingly.
