AI Understanding се ангажира с точността. Когато открием фактическа грешка в публикувано съдържание - независимо дали ни е докладвана от читател, източник или нашите собствени редактори - ние я коригираме незабавно и прозрачно.

Как да докладвам корекция

Имейл info@aiunderstanding.org с темата „Корекция: [URL адрес на страница]“ и включват:

  • URL адресът на страницата, съдържаща грешката
  • Точният текст или твърдение, което смятате за неправилно
  • Точната информация, по възможност с източник
  • Вашето име и имейл, за да можем да проследим

Можете също да изпратите чрез нашия форма за контакт или страница за докладване на проблем. Ние се стремим да отговорим в рамките на два работни дни.

Как оценяваме исканията за корекция

Редактор преглежда всяка заявка за корекция. Ние проверяваме твърдението спрямо оригиналните източници, преди да направим каквато и да е промяна. Ако заявката е валидна, актуализираме статията. Ако не можем да го проверим или не сме съгласни с предложената промяна, ние отговаряме, обяснявайки мотивите си.

Нива на корекция

1. Корекция на печатна грешка или форматиране

Правописни грешки, повредени връзки или проблеми с форматирането, които не променят смисъла на дадена статия, се коригират тихо. Ние не добавяме бележка за корекция за тях.

2. Фактическа корекция

Когато променим фактическо твърдение - дата, номер, име, възможност, цитат - ние добавяме Корекция бележка в долната част на статията, описваща какво е променено и кога. Оригиналният неправилен текст се премахва; бележката за корекция обяснява какво е казано преди това.

3. Значителна актуализация

Когато част се промени съществено след публикуването - например, когато основната новина се развие или компания издаде разяснение - ние добавяме Актуализация бележка с датата и резюме на промените. Това запазва оригиналното отчитане, като прави времевата линия прозрачна.

4. Прибиране

Ако една статия е толкова съществено погрешна, че корекцията е недостатъчна, ние я оттегляме. Оставяме URL адреса активен с известие за оттегляне, обясняващо какво не е наред и защо, вместо да изтриваме страницата тихо. Оттеглянията са редки и изискват одобрение от нашия редактор.

Козметични и копиращи редакции

Малките стилистични редакции — префразиране за яснота, стесняване на прозата, коригиране на заглавия — не изискват бележка за корекция, стига значението да е запазено.

Актуализации за промяна на информацията

AI се движи бързо. Когато цените, възможностите на модела или наличността на функции се променят след публикуването ни, ние актуализираме съответните статии и ги маркираме с новата дата на преглед. Ние не третираме тези опресняващи актуализации като „корекции“ — оригиналната статия беше точна към датата на публикуване.

Заявки за премахване на източник

Обикновено не премахваме публикувани статии при поискване, дори от посочени теми. Ние ще го разгледаме само в случаи, включващи правна принуда, заплахи за безопасността или когато самото първоначално докладване е съществено погрешно и оттеглянето е уместно.

Право на отговор

Ако сте лице или организация, посочени в една от нашите статии и смятате, че сме ви характеризирали неправилно, можете да изпратите отговор. Съществените, проверими отговори се добавят като актуализация или приложена бележка по преценка на редактора.

Проследяване на корекции

Всички корекции и актуализации са с дата и се виждат на самата страница на статията. Ние не пренаписваме историята — целта на тази политика е всеки читател да може да види какво се е променило, кога и защо.

Дневник за актуализиране на новини

Всяка канонична новинарска история, която е била ревизирана след публикуването, е посочена тук автоматично, като най-новата промяна е първа, със същите времеви клейма и резюмета, показани на страницата с история. Дневникът обхваща последните 100 актуализации в публикуваните истории и се опреснява на всеки няколко минути.
