CBC News tightens AI usage rules, mandating human oversight and transparency for automated content

CBC News has updated its internal guidelines on the use of AI, emphasizing that artificial intelligence is a tool, not the creator, of published content. The policy allows AI for assistive tasks like data analysis, drafting suggestions and accessibility services, but bans AI from writing full articles or creating public-facing images or videos, and requires explicit disclosure to audiences when AI plays a significant role in a story.
