Editorial Policy

Last updated: May 1, 2026

AIDEN runs an editorial workflow centered on curation and human review, with AI analysis tooling used to assist Korean drafting — so global AI news reaches readers quickly and transparently.

1. Editorial Scope and Purpose

• AIDEN organizes publicly available information in the areas of AI models, research, products, business, policy, tutorials, and opinion into articles for our readers.
• Rather than competing for breaking news, we focus on explaining the changes, background, implications, and follow-on developments that readers need to understand.
• We do not replace reporting by the original outlet; articles are written on the basis of the original source so that key facts and sources can be verified.

2. Collection Standards

• We collect from public RSS feeds and web documents from the official blogs of major AI companies such as OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google/DeepMind, as well as from global technology and research outlets.
• Only articles falling within the categories of AI models, research, products, business, policy, tutorials, and opinion are selected.
• When multiple articles cover the same story, we prioritize based on duplication, source credibility, and the context that matters to our readers.
• Even if an item falls within the collection scope, we may exclude promotional press releases, poorly substantiated rumors, content with unclear sources, and content with low relevance to AI.

3. Writing Principles

• Each article is written from the point of view of one of AIDEN's editorial personas. Their backgrounds and areas of expertise are published on the About page.
• AI analysis tooling drafts the article so the assigned persona's lens and Korea-market context are reflected, and a human editor then verifies that the body contains enough concrete facts, policy threads, and Korea-market comparisons.
• Rather than republishing the original verbatim, we rewrite content into a structure that is easy for readers to understand. At least a third of every body must be analysis or comparison that is not present in the source.
• Headlines and body text must match the article content, and we avoid exaggerated expressions designed to drive clicks.
• Content is not expressed as professional advice substituting for investment, legal, medical, or other specialist judgment.
• Projections, implications, and possibilities are expressed separately from established facts, and definitive interpretations not present in the original are not added.
• Direct quotations are limited to what is necessary, and lengthy passages of original text are not reproduced verbatim.

4. Review and Approval

• Only articles that pass criteria for importance, language quality, absence of raw JSON artifacts, source attribution, and source similarity are eligible for automatic approval.
• Editors can modify article headlines, body, summaries, categories, and images, or approve, reject, or delete articles.
• Approval and rejection history is used as a reference for improving the quality of subsequent article collection and writing.
• If the body exposes JSON, prompt traces, internal error messages, or incomplete sentences, the article is not published and is instead corrected or regenerated.
• Even after an article is published, if an error is confirmed, we review necessary actions including unpublishing, correction, correction notice, or deletion.

5. Sources and Copyright

• Articles are managed together with the original URL, source name, and original publication date to the extent possible.
• While the gist of the original is reorganized for our readers, we check that sentence structures or expressions overly similar to the original are not repeated.
• We avoid reproducing the full text of external works, lengthy quotations, or unauthorized use of images, and respond promptly when an issue is raised.

6. Image Policy

• Article images may be used in the following order: AI-generated images, safe external images, and category default images.
• Generated images are used as editorial thumbnails related to the article topic; we avoid depictions that could be mistaken for actual logos, trademarks, or identifiable individuals.
• Generated images are reviewed and approved by an editor in the admin interface before being attached to an article.
• We do not use sensational images unrelated to the article content or depictions that could be mistaken for real photographs.

7. Corrections and Inquiries

If you discover an error, inaccurate translation, source issue, or copyright concern, please contact us at hyunmin625@gmail.com. After review, we will consider necessary actions including correction, supplementation, unpublishing, or deletion.

• Factual errors are corrected after verifying against the original and additional sources.
• Issues that affect reader understanding — such as headline, summary, or category errors — are addressed as a priority.
• For copyright or rights infringement reports, including the relevant URL and a description of the issue will allow us to review it more quickly.

8. Advertising and Independence

AIDEN may carry advertising, affiliate links, and sponsored content. Areas of an advertising or sponsored nature are distinguished from editorial article body text to the extent practicable, and we manage such content so that sponsored interests are not mistaken for independent editorial coverage.

9. Visitor Analytics and Service Improvement

Visitor analytics are used to improve public site usage patterns and content quality. As a matter of principle, admin panel activity, API requests, automated tools, and bot-like access are excluded from general reader visit analysis.
