AI is an assistant, not evidence
DataXplainer uses AI to increase the speed and scope of investigations. Information, data and analysis obtained with AI assistance are directly reviewed or verified by DataXplainer staff.
Investigation Planning
We use AI assistance to break large questions into smaller verifiable questions, identify possible sources and organise research tasks.
Finding Documents and Data
We use AI to find relevant sections in large documents, understand data structures, identify possible inconsistencies and find leads for further verification.
Analysis and Code
We use AI to clean data, check calculations, write or debug code and speed up repetitive analysis.
Returning to the Original Source
We do not treat AI-generated summaries or analysis as sources. DataXplainer staff verify publishable information using original documents, data or other verifiable sources.
Transparency
Where AI plays an important role in the investigation method, we explain that use and its limitations to readers when relevant.
