How Learn AI Today sources, tests, writes and corrects its posts, including exactly what AI tools are used for and what they are never trusted to decide.

Learn AI Today publishes plain-English explainers about artificial intelligence for beginners. This page sets out how posts are researched, checked, written and corrected.

Sources#

Every figure links to the source it came from. Published research and official documentation come first, then reporting from established outlets. Claims made by a company about its own product are labelled as that company's own, and community reports, such as Reddit threads, are labelled as reported rather than measured. A figure whose source cannot be found is dropped rather than kept. Where sources disagree, the post shows both and explains the difference.

Testing#

When a post reports a test, the test was actually run, and the post says what was tested, with which tool or model, and on what date. When no test was run, the post says what the sources show and does not imply first-hand experience. The hallucination test is an example of the first kind.

How AI is used#

AI tools help with research, such as finding research papers and choosing topics, and with editing and proofreading. They are not trusted to decide what is true.

Robert Waithaka writes the first draft of every new post himself, after checking the material it relies on. This applies from October 2026. Posts published before then were drafted with help from AI tools, and they are being checked against their sources as each one is updated. Robert reviews and approves every post before it goes live.

Charts are drawn from the cited data, and the site does not use generated photographs as evidence of anything.

Dates and updates#

Each post shows when it was published and when its facts were last reviewed. Fast-moving posts, such as model comparisons and hardware prices, are re-checked more often than the rest.

Corrections#

To report an error, use the contact page and include the post's title or link. Factual errors are corrected, and a significant correction is noted at the foot of the post with the date it was made.

Not professional advice#

Posts are general education, not legal, financial or professional advice. The disclaimer has the details.
