What the AI did
An AI model read the source article, classified the event, wrote the headline, the key takeaway and the chain of steps from the event to a small business, and gave the cost direction where the evidence supports one.
Checked automatically
the publication gate: the analysis finished cleanly and its served text passed the public-content rules; no investment-recommendation wording; a cost direction is withheld when the story's own words point the other way; the indexing rule: only stories with a cost direction, a three-step chain, a named organisation and a small-business cost are offered to search engines.
What people did
No person read this page before it was published. People set the rules the engine follows and the sources it reads, and review every error that is reported.
