Editorial
How HowToPrompts decides what to cover, how articles are written and checked before they publish, and the standards we hold ourselves to on originality, corrections, images, independence, and advertising.
Stories are found from public information: official company and research blogs, papers and preprints, regulator and government announcements, press releases, filings, and community discussion on forums and social platforms. We look for developments that matter to people building with AI and that are supported by an on-the-record source.
We do not run anonymous tips as fact, and we do not publish a story that rests on a single unverifiable claim. Where reporting elsewhere is the trigger for a story, that reporting is treated as a lead to be checked against primary sources — not as text to be reproduced.
Every article is written from scratch, in HowToPrompts's own words, from the underlying facts. We do not republish source articles, and we do not lightly reword them. Quotations, when used, are short, clearly marked, and attributed.
Before an article can publish, it is run through an automated similarity check against the sources it draws on. Anything that comes back too close to a source's wording is blocked and rewritten. Articles are substantive — typically five to seven paragraphs that explain what happened, why it matters, and what context a reader needs — not headline restatements.
We think it is better to be plain about this than to hide it. Article drafting at HowToPrompts is AI-assisted: once a story has been researched and its facts gathered, a large language model helps produce a first draft from those facts. That draft is then subject to automated quality and originality checks, including the similarity gate described above.
The use of AI in drafting does not reduce our responsibility. HowToPrompts takes full editorial responsibility for everything it publishes, including accuracy, framing, and corrections. If an article is wrong, that is on us, not on a tool.
If you believe an article contains a factual error, email corrections@howtoprompts.com with the article title, what is inaccurate, and a source for the correct information where possible.
We review every report. Confirmed errors are fixed promptly. Where a correction is significant — it changes the meaning of the story or corrects a material fact — we note it on the article so readers can see what changed and when.
News photographs are used under editorial, fair-use-style practice, with a visible credit to the source outlet printed beneath the image ("Image: <source>"). We use them to illustrate the story being reported, not decoratively and not in a way that implies endorsement.
Rights holders who want an image removed can write to corrections@howtoprompts.com and we will take it down promptly on request.
There is no paid placement in HowToPrompts news. Coverage is not sold, and no company can pay to appear, to be covered favourably, or to have a story suppressed. Library listings are editorial: inclusion is not paid for, and no vendor pays for a place in the catalogue.
If the site ever carries affiliate links or a sponsored item, it will be clearly disclosed as such on the page where it appears.
HowToPrompts is supported, or will be supported, by advertising, including Google AdSense. Ads are labelled as advertising and kept visually distinct from editorial content. Advertisers have no input into what we cover or how we cover it, and no advance sight of editorial content. The presence or absence of an advertiser never affects a story or a listing. How advertising cookies are handled is described in our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.
