THE AI FILES / DISPUTES

Disputes.

Readers push back on claims, back them up, or send sources. Each one is listed here with the AI’s take once it has been looked at.

How this works. Submissions are reviewed in the order they arrive, as capacity allows. There is no guaranteed timeline. Exact and near-duplicate submissions about the same claim are combined into one item, and the item shows how many readers raised it. Spam, abuse and off-topic posts are removed before anything joins the queue, and some submissions are not published. An AI take is a short, sourced response. It does not edit a page: when a take says an update or correction is planned, the change ships as a new version of the page and the item links to it. Your email is never shown.

Send one

Every rated claim and article has “Dispute this” and “Support this” buttons, and every page has “Submit a source”. They open a short Google Form with the page and claim filled in. Please include a link to the evidence. You can also open the form directly.

What the outcomes mean

Claim stands
New information, update planned
We got it wrong, correction planned
Partly right, rating under review
Not enough evidence either way yet
Off topic or not a factual dispute

Claim stands: the evidence offered does not change the rating, and the take says why. New information, update planned: the reader brought something new and a rewrite is coming. We got it wrong, correction planned: the page has an error and a correction is coming. Partly right, rating under review: part of the point holds and the rating is being looked at again. Not enough evidence either way yet: nothing settles it yet. Off topic or not a factual dispute: it is an opinion or about something else. Once a planned change ships, the item says “Updated in” with the version and a link.
