What CurratedBrief is

CurratedBrief covers artificial intelligence and the technology business — what happened, what it means, and what it changes for the people who have to act on it.

The daily focus is AI: model releases, safety and security incidents, chips and compute, regulation, and the money moving through the sector. Around that sit the areas AI keeps colliding with — technology, business, digital marketing and practical tutorials.

The aim is not to be first. Plenty of sites will have the headline before we do. The aim is to be the version worth reading afterwards: the one that checked the primary source, put the story in context, and said plainly what is still unknown.

Who publishes it

CurratedBrief is an independent publication, founded in 2025 and edited from the United Kingdom. It is not owned by, funded by, or affiliated with any of the companies it covers.

We publish under the masthead rather than under individual bylines. That is a deliberate choice about consistency of standard rather than an attempt to be anonymous — the same editorial process applies to every piece, and the standards below are what we ask to be judged on. Editorial responsibility sits with the editor, who can be reached at the address at the bottom of this page.

How we report

Our full standards are set out in our Editorial Guidelines. In short:

Primary sources first. Where a company, regulator or researcher has published something directly, we read that document rather than someone’s summary of it, and we link to it so you can check the work yourself.

Claims are attributed. When a figure comes from a company’s own testing or announcement, we say so. Self-reported benchmarks and internal evaluations are labelled as such, because the difference between “a lab reported this” and “this was independently verified” is usually the whole story.

Uncertainty is stated, not smoothed over. Most of our analysis pieces carry a section on what is still unknown. Reporting that hides its own gaps is less useful than reporting that marks them.

Numbers need a source. If we cannot point to where a statistic came from, we do not publish it. “Studies show” is not a citation.

No copied articles. We summarise, quote and analyse other people’s reporting with attribution and a link. We do not republish it.

How we use AI

We use AI tools in the production process — for research assistance, drafting, summarising and formatting. Every piece is checked against its primary sources before publication, and a human editor is accountable for what appears here.

We think it would be strange to cover this subject daily and be cagey about it. What matters is not whether a tool was involved but whether the facts hold up, the sources are real, and someone checked. If you ever find we have fallen short of that, tell us and we will correct it.

Corrections

If something here is wrong, we want to know. Send the detail to [email protected] and we will verify it and correct the piece promptly, noting any material change on the article itself.

Where a story develops after we publish, we update the article and change the “last updated” date rather than quietly editing it.

Independence and commercial policy

Editorial decisions are made independently of commercial considerations. Any sponsored or paid placement is clearly labelled as such and has no influence on our analysis or on what we choose to cover. Details of advertising options are on our Adverts page.
