Please see Clearway’s generative AI policy below.
The rise of generative AI is shaking the foundations of journalism, challenging our understanding of authorship and originality. People are increasingly unsure about the origins of the content they consume, be it news, music, or literature.
This murky situation raises critical questions about the ethical use of AI in content creation.
AI technology, while fascinating, often falters in accuracy. Instances of unreliability are not uncommon, casting doubt on its dependability.
The legal and ethical aspects of how AI borrows from existing content, whether copyrighted or not, remain largely unresolved. The potential for ingrained biases in AI-generated content adds another layer of complication.

Clearway’s Strict Stance on AI Use
Clearway is firm in its approach: no stories, emails, or editorials through generative AI programs like ChatGPT or Jasper. They are transitioning away from previously AI-assisted content to purely human-written articles.
AI imagery is also a no-go for Clearway. They ensure their images are AI-free and promptly remove any AI-generated visuals that slip through.
Selective AI Adoption and Transparency
Clearway isn’t entirely anti-AI. They utilize AI for plagiarism checks and are open to exploring its use for brainstorming and research. But, they’re cautious, acknowledging mixed outcomes reported by other publishers.
Clearway is also considering AI for data mining to support human-written editorial work. They maintain a clear policy on AI use and enforce strict measures against any violations.
Generative AI Policy
Clearway’s approach exemplifies a cautious yet open stance on AI. They recognize AI’s potential in certain areas while firmly rejecting its use in core journalistic practices.
As AI continues to evolve, maintaining such a balanced perspective will be crucial for the integrity of journalism and content creation.
