AI and Media Policy

Every displayed character is an AI-generated adult. No real person is depicted as a chatbot persona, reviewer or member of staff. The portraits set a visual context for the editorial subject; they are not evidence that a particular platform produced, owns or offers that character.

Published images remain non-graphic. We exclude sexually explicit material, age-ambiguous characters and content implying a minor. Source ownership and AI provenance were attested by the supplied-media owner; all published portraits and video come from that supplied archive.

Official brand marks are used to identify the platforms under review. A mark does not indicate that the brand endorsed this article or verified its conclusions. If an intended brand identity is unresolved, we use its text name and say so rather than invent a logo.

A documentation capture is labelled as official public documentation with its check date. It supports the specific text visible in that capture, not a claim about logged-in conversation performance. Illustrations and captures are visually labelled as different kinds of material.

Responsive image sizes reduce download cost while preserving the original subject. Crops should keep adult faces clear and avoid distorting proportions. The published clip preserves its complete supplied duration and full frame boundaries. Web encoding can change its file representation without cutting the scene, changing its speed or removing frames.

Video is muted and has a visible pause control. Non-essential motion follows reduced-motion preferences. Descriptive alternatives identify an adult illustration without assigning a real-person identity or pretending it is a provider screenshot.

If a character appears age-ambiguous, an image seems to copy an unauthorized real-person likeness, or a source is misidentified, send the page and asset to the publication contact. The removal process explains what information helps assessment.

A concern can be assessed without publishing the claimant’s identity or asserting an unverified deadline. Material may be corrected, relabelled or removed when the evidence supports it.
