Editorial Policy
At safe plant news (SPN) we are committed to delivering accurate, reliable, and responsible journalism. As part of our editorial process, at times we may also use Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools, including large language models, to assist our editorial team. To maintain transparency with our readers, we outline our policy on the use of AI below:
Role of AI in Content Creation
We believe that safety and sustainability are not optional—they are essential for Pakistan’s development and resilience. From industrial health standards to climate change adaptation, our coverage is designed to spotlight the issues that matter most:
- AI tools may be used to draft articles, generate summaries, create visuals, or suggest headlines
- All AI-generated outputs are reviewed, fact-checked, and edited by our human editorial team before publication.
- AI is treated as an assistive tool, not a replacement for human judgment, journalistic standards, or editorial accountability.
Accuracy and Fact-Checking
- AI-generated drafts may contain errors or outdated information.
- Every article undergoes human review for accuracy, clarity, and context.
- Data, statistics, and quotes are always cross-verified with credible sources (government agencies, research institutions, international organizations, or verified experts).
Copyright and Plagiarism
- We ensure all published content is original and free of plagiarism.
- Facts and information sourced from external reports are properly attributed and cited.
- We do not publish unverified, copied, or misleading material from AI or other sources.

Ethical Standards
- AI is never used to fabricate news, manipulate facts, or spread misinformation.
- Sensitive topics (e.g., disasters, accidents, politics, or legal issues) are handled with extra editorial scrutiny.
- We avoid using AI to generate discriminatory, harmful, or biased narratives.
Transparency with Readers
-
When AI tools play a significant role in producing an article or visual, we may include a note such as:
“This article was developed with the assistance of AI tools and edited by our editorial team.” - Readers can always trust that the final responsibility lies with our human editors
Continuous Improvement
- Our editorial team regularly reviews and updates this policy as AI technologies evolve.
- We welcome feedback from readers on any concerns regarding accuracy, originality, or fairness.
