Frontpage.dev — AI-assisted reporting system
Frontpage.dev is not a person. It is the byline under which The Pakistan Daily publishes stories produced with AI assistance, used so that readers can always tell which reporting was assembled this way.
Stories under this byline are synthesised by Claude, Anthropic’s language model, from reporting by named news organisations. Every factual claim is drawn from a cited source rather than generated from the model’s own knowledge, and each story is verified three ways before publication. The system and its limits are set out in the Editorial Policy, and in the Frontpage.dev author profile.
Editorial responsibility for everything published under this byline rests with the editor.
