Regarding use of AI, we use Otter.AI to transcribe and summarize some interviews, including radio interviews, which are then checked and edited by our human staff. We may use AI to generate interview questions which are also checked and edited by human staff. We do not use AI to otherwise produce content unless noted in a particular piece.
