How we research
Every article ships with sources, verification passes, and an explicit update policy. We want you to see the work behind the words.
Sources we use
- Primary data when possible: filings, research papers, first-party benchmarks, and transcripts.
- Expert interviews with clear attribution or anonymized context when safety is a concern.
- Real-world workflows from operators, parents, teachers, and engineers living the AI shifts.
How we verify
- Cross-check claims with at least two independent sources or datasets.
- Run hands-on drills when possible; "does this actually work?" is a requirement, not a slogan.
- Flag uncertainty and limits; we'd rather mark a gap than overstate confidence.
Updates and corrections
- Each piece lists a published date; significant updates get a visible note with what changed.
- Corrections are logged quickly and without hedging; if we get something wrong, we fix it and say so.
- Feedback inbox is always open; send notes to editor@survivetheai.com.
Editorial guardrails
- No fear-bait headlines; fear is acknowledged, not exploited.
- No hidden sponsorships; we disclose offers and affiliate links clearly.
- No generative filler; AI helps with drafts and research, humans remain responsible for the judgment.
Impact Score
Impact Score is STA's editorial triage number for urgency and consequence, not a certainty rating. Read the public methodology page to see how the number is assigned and how to interpret it.
Publisher
Editorial accountability
