Output

what your ai solution delivers

This card covers what your AI tool hands back to the user. The form of the output, a draft, a summary, a list, a score, decides how a journalist checks and uses it. Being clear about output also sets honest expectations about what the tool produces and what still needs a human.

Questions to explore

// use these as prompts in a workshop or on your own. There are no right answers.
  1. What exact form does the output take, and how does a journalist verify it?
  2. How will the output show its limits or flag where it might be wrong?
  3. What does a good result look like, and how would you spot a bad one?
  4. Who reviews the output before it reaches a reader or a published story?
  5. How might the output be misread or trusted more than it should be?

Things to consider

  • Output that looks polished can hide errors, so make checking easy.
  • Decide what the tool will not output, such as final published copy.
  • Match the output format to how the work is actually used next.
