Who we are
AI in Europe is published and edited by Adrian Watkins. Editorial responsibility for every piece on the site, including factual accuracy, framing, and any corrections, rests with him.
Bylines you will see on the site
We publish under two bylines, and only two:
- Intelligence Desk is the wire-style byline for our newsroom output: daily news, explainers, deep dives, ports from sister publications, and bulletin-style coverage. It signals team output rather than a single writer.
- Adrian Watkins is the byline used for the weekly long-form essay and for any first-person founder writing. These pieces carry his personal editorial sign-off.
We do not publish under fictitious personas. Every byline on the site identifies either a real human contributor or the Intelligence Desk wire-style label for team output.
How we use AI
We use AI extensively in our editorial workflow. AI is used to research topics, surface sources, draft initial article copy, summarise primary documents, and translate non-English material. Every piece is then reviewed by a human editor before it is published.
This disclosure is intended to satisfy our obligation under Article 50 of the EU Artificial Intelligence Act, which requires that providers of generative AI systems and deployers who publish AI-generated or AI-assisted content do so transparently. Our position is simple: assume that any article on AI in Europe was drafted with AI assistance and reviewed by a human editor. If you ever need clarity on how a specific article was produced, write to us.
Sourcing and accuracy
We verify claims against primary sources wherever they exist: regulator publications, official press releases, academic papers, financial filings, court records, and the original web pages of named companies and people. Where we rely on another publication's reporting, we link to the original source. We do not paraphrase a primary fact without seeing its origin.
If a figure or quote cannot be verified, we say so or we leave it out. If we are unsure of a claim, we use hedged language rather than overconfident phrasing. We do not invent quotes, statistics, sources, or attribution.
Corrections
We correct factual errors as soon as they are identified. Corrections are noted in the article's update log with the date of the change and a brief description of what was corrected. We do not silently edit published articles to remove errors.
To report an error, write to hello@aiineurope.com. We aim to acknowledge corrections within one working day and to publish the corrected version within two.
Independence
Our editorial decisions are made independently of our commercial relationships. Advertisers have no influence over which stories we run or how we frame them. Sponsored content is always clearly labelled with a "Sponsored" tag and is held to the same factual standard as editorial content, but we do not pretend it is editorial.
Affiliate links
Some articles contain affiliate links. We may earn a commission if you purchase through these links, at no extra cost to you. Affiliate relationships do not influence which products we recommend or how we describe them.
