AI Content Disclosure

Ajako Taja is built on AI — and we think you deserve to know exactly how. This page is our commitment to transparency about how AI shapes what you read.

Last updated: June 1, 2026

1. Our Commitment to Transparency

AI isn't a background feature on Ajako Taja — it's the core of how the platform works. Artificial intelligence is how we discover trending stories and how we summarize them. (Article images are a separate, non-AI process — see Section 3.) We think that deserves honest disclosure, not fine print.

We believe AI-assisted journalism can be done responsibly: with clear labeling, human oversight on the things that matter most, and a genuine respect for accuracy. This page explains how we use AI today and where its limitations lie.

2. AI-Generated Articles & Summaries

Most articles on Ajako Taja are generated or significantly assisted by an AI language model. Here's what that actually means:

How it works

Our system monitors hundreds of news sources and RSS feeds in real time.
When the same story starts appearing across multiple independent outlets, our pipeline picks it up.
An AI language model reads all the relevant source articles and writes a concise summary.
The summary passes through automated quality filters before it's published.
Sensitive topics — elections, public health, legal proceedings — are flagged for additional review.

What this means for you

AI summaries distill several sources into one clear read, which saves time but can lose nuance.
The summary tends to reflect whichever source articles were most prominent — not necessarily the most balanced view.
Satire, irony, and context-dependent language can be misread by AI.
AI occasionally introduces small factual errors not present in the original sources.

We label AI-assisted articles where we can, and we encourage you to click through to the original sources on anything important.

3. How Article Images Are Made

Article thumbnails on Ajako Taja are not photographs and not generated by an AI image model. They're programmatically composed graphics — we made this choice deliberately, since it avoids both using images we don't have rights to and the unpredictability of AI-generated photos.

How we make them

Each image is rendered in code using the niche's brand color as a gradient background.
The article headline is overlaid as styled text using the open-source `sharp` image-processing library.
No photograph, stock image, or AI image-generation service is used in this step.

What you should know

These images are abstract brand graphics, not depictions of real events, people, or locations.
They're illustrative only — please don't treat them as photographic evidence of anything.
Because there's no external image API in this pipeline, thumbnails don't expire or go missing for that reason.

4. Automated Trend Analysis

The trending scores and rankings on Ajako Taja are calculated algorithmically, not by a human editor choosing what's important. Our system:

Monitors signals from social media platforms via their public APIs.
Aggregates engagement metrics — shares, comments, discussion volume.
Weighs recency, velocity (how fast a topic is growing), and cross-platform presence.
Applies AI-based topic and category classification.
Updates rankings continuously based on fresh data.

Trending rankings reflect engagement volume, not editorial importance or factual significance. Something can trend because it's controversial, funny, or viral — not because it matters.

5. Accuracy Limitations

We want to be honest about what AI gets wrong:

Known limitations

Hallucination — AI language models can produce plausible-sounding but factually incorrect information.
Source skew — if the source articles contain an error, the AI summary may reproduce or amplify it.
Nuance loss — complex geopolitical, scientific, or cultural topics can be oversimplified.
Bias — AI models reflect biases in their training data; we work to mitigate this but can't eliminate it.

What we do about it

We require stories to be confirmed by multiple independent sources before publication.
We provide source attribution links on every article so you can verify for yourself.
We invite users to report inaccuracies — see the section below.
We don't silently edit published articles; corrections are noted.

For health, legal, financial, or safety information — always verify from an authoritative primary source before acting on anything you read here.

6. Editorial Review Process

We're a small team. Not every article gets a human eye before it goes live — and we think you should know that.

Fully automated (most content)

Standard trending news summaries are published through an automated pipeline with automated quality checks. No human reviews each one individually.

Human review (selected content)

Content our systems flag as sensitive — elections, public health emergencies, major legal proceedings — is queued for editorial review. We prioritize these, but there may be a brief window before review is complete.

Corrections

When a factual error is confirmed — either by our team or via a user report — we correct it and note the change on the article. We don't silently edit published content.

7. How to Identify AI Content

We aim to make AI-generated content easy to spot. Current indicators:

AI-assisted articles display a small "AI" badge on the post card and a byline note on the article itself.
Source attribution links show where the underlying information came from.
Articles without a named human author are AI-generated unless otherwise stated.

We're continuously improving our labeling. If you're unsure about any specific piece of content, check the source links or reach out.

8. Reporting Inaccuracies

Found something wrong? We genuinely want to know. If you spot an inaccuracy, misleading summary, or harmful content:

Use the report button on the article (where available).
Email us at guidedlabs@gmail.com with the article URL and a brief description of the issue.
We'll investigate and respond within 5 business days for factual corrections.
Confirmed inaccuracies will be corrected and noted on the article.

Community feedback genuinely helps us improve. AI-assisted news gets better when readers stay engaged with accuracy.

9. Future AI Use

We're continuously building. Features we're considering for the future:

Deeper AI personalization based on reading preferences.
AI-powered Q&A about trending topics.
Multilingual AI summaries in Nepali and other regional languages.
Video-format summaries of trending stories.

We'll update this disclosure whenever we introduce material new AI capabilities that affect what you see on Ajako Taja.
