I'm not throwing shade at proper transparency, I'm calling for more of it! Putting out a story, report, assertion, etc, that carries most or all the trappings of veracity, but has some disclaimer that isn't right up front-and-center-obvious, is NOT proper transparency. Proper news stories are supposed to be structured with the most important information up front, in the headline & first paragraph — the 5 Ws — Who, What, When, Where, Why. Then go into successively less important detail. The concept is to deliver news, and also allow the editors to cut it off wherever necessary to fit. If the story is not factual, your disclaimer needs to be in that first paragraph (with an exception for April Fools jokes). Just because most "news" is now formless clickbait trash, does not make it legit to put a "this uses some [unspecified amount of] AI input and may not be fully factual" at the end where nobody will read it. That's playing cute "gotcha" games with your readers, and is the opposite of transparency.
