Research and AI Policy
Research and AI Policy for 5UNZOO | Tech Audits & Global News
At 5UNZOO, we believe in "Questioning Tech's Default Realities." To maintain our high standard of forensic auditing and rapid news reporting, we utilize a "Human-in-the-Loop" methodology. This policy outlines our commitment to transparency in the age of AI.
1. Editorial Sovereignty
Every article, audit, and news report on 5UNZOO is conceptualized and directed by human editors. We do not use "Automated Content Generation" to mass-produce articles. Sanju Sapkota personally selects the "angle" and editorial direction of every piece to ensure it provides a unique perspective that a machine cannot replicate.
2. Our Forensic Research Process
To provide deep technical audits, we follow a rigorous verification pipeline:
Primary Source Evidence: We prioritize technical papers, patent filings, corporate disclosure documents, and direct hardware testing data.
AI-Assisted Synthesis: We use AI tools to help analyze large datasets (such as chipset benchmarks or market statistics) and to summarize lengthy technical documentation.
Double-Verification: No data point provided by an AI is published without being verified against an official, non-AI secondary source.
3. News Monitoring & Accuracy
In our Global News Intelligence division, we use AI to:
Real-Time Monitoring: Track breaking news across multiple languages and regions to ensure our readers in Nepal and abroad stay informed.
Correction Assistance: Run automated checks to ensure historical dates, names, and technical specifications are consistent.
Fact-Checking: AI helps our team identify potential discrepancies in news reports, which are then manually investigated by our editors.
4. The "Anti-Hallucination" Protocol
AI "hallucinations" (confident but false information) are a risk to technical journalism. To combat this, 5UNZOO maintains a strict rule: Zero automated publishing. * Every draft is reviewed for technical logic.
Every number cited in a technical audit is cross-referenced with a physical or official digital source.
5. Transparency Disclosure
We use AI because it allows a specialized team to perform the deep-dive research typically reserved for large, corporate newsrooms. Our use of technology is designed to enhance human intelligence, not replace it. We believe this balance is the future of responsible tech journalism.
