Founder & Editor-in-Chief: Tiago Fernandes
At Everything of Dog News, we are committed to maintaining the highest levels of journalistic integrity, original reporting, and public trust. As digital publishing technologies evolve, the emergence of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools presents both innovative opportunities and significant ethical responsibilities.
To ensure absolute transparency with our readers, advertising networks, and syndication platforms, this document establishes our strict institutional policy regarding the use of AI systems within our newsroom. This policy is engineered to meet the core transparency expectations of the Google News Publisher Policies and the evolving frameworks for ethical digital media.
1. Core Mandate: 100% Human Journalism and Accountability
The core value of Everything of Dog News rests on human empathy, real-world experience, and active journalistic apuration. Therefore, we enforce a strict mandate regarding our text assets:
- No Raw AI-Generated Content: We do not publish news briefs, breed profiles, veterinary safety alerts, or investigative pieces written directly, autonomously, or purely by generative AI tools (such as ChatGPT, Claude, or similar Large Language Models).
- Absolute Human Oversight: Every word, fact, quote, and line of data published under our masthead is written, reviewed, fact-checked, and approved by a real human editor—led by our Founder, Tiago Fernandes.
- Anti-Scraping Protection: We do not use automated bots to scrape external news sites and rephrase their text using AI rewriters. Our reporting relies on primary documentation, official veterinary press releases, and independent research.
2. Permitted and Restricted Applications of AI Tools
While we prohibit AI from substituting human authorship, we acknowledge that advanced computational tools can serve as valuable assistants when carefully governed by a human specialist. Below is the strict breakdown of how AI tools may and may not be utilized within our ecosystem:
| Operational Area | Permitted Use (With Human Approval) | Strictly Prohibited Use |
|---|---|---|
| Editorial & Writing | Assisting in brainstorm structures, suggesting headline variations for SEO, generating metadata, and running basic spelling or grammatical checks (via tools like Grammarly). | Writing entire news reports, creating fictional quotes, or generating automated health advice that has not been deeply cross-referenced with human veterinary consensus. |
| Data Analysis | Utilizing algorithmic data processors to sort through complex spreadsheets, massive municipal rescue public reports, or public veterinary trends to extract statistics. | Allowing an automated tool to draw definitive editorial conclusions, publish predictions, or establish medical guidelines without expert human verification. |
| Visual Media & Design | Employing graphic design software that utilizes AI for technical enhancements (such as noise reduction, background removal for easy cropping, or image upscaling for mobile responsiveness). | Publishing completely synthetic, deepfake, or unlabelled AI-generated photojournalistic images that misrepresent real-world events, animal abuse operations, or natural disasters. |
3. Guarding Against Misinformation (E-E-A-T Assurance)
Generative AI models are historically prone to “hallucinations”—the creation of plausible-sounding but completely fabricated facts, dates, legal statutes, or medical claims. Because canine health and veterinary updates border on critical safety parameters, we treat unverified AI claims as an absolute risk to public trust.
Our newsroom treats AI-generated text or data summaries as raw, unverified claims. No statistic, diagnostic tip, or legal animal right statute provided by an AI workflow is ever accepted at face value; it must be traced back to its primary, verifiable human source (such as the American Veterinary Medical Association or official governmental portals) before it is authorized for publication.
4. Protecting Content Provenance and Fair Use
Just as we demand high standards from our human staff, we aggressively protect the intellectual rights of other creators. We do not use AI tools to bypass copyright protections, spin copyrighted materials, or mimic the distinct journalistic style of peer pet publications.
Furthermore, in accordance with our Terms of Service, we explicitly prohibit external web crawlers or data mining bots from scraping our original journalism to train external AI models without our clear, written contractual licensing agreements.
5. Continuous Policy Calibration
Artificial Intelligence technology is moving at an unprecedented pace. Everything of Dog News reviews this AI Usage Policy quarterly to adapt to new industrial standards, legal copyright decisions within the United States, and updated guidelines issued by the Google Search & News Content Teams. Any updates will be applied directly to this live page with an adjusted date stamp.
6. Public Feedback and Inquiries
We value complete algorithmic transparency. If you have questions regarding our technological workflows, wish to inquire about our content provenance structures, or want to report a concern, please reach out to our managing desk:
