AI Policy

BusinessAviation.aero AI Policy

The low altitude economy moves at light speed. So do we. That’s why businessaviation.aero is using Generative AI tools to keep pace with an industry that’s writing the rulebook as it flies.

AI doesn’t write our stories or make editorial decisions. Think of it as the world’s most capable research assistant and copy editor rolled into one. It helps us gather information faster, refine our prose, and deliver content across multiple platforms without compromising our editorial voice, covering everything from eVTOL certification to urban air mobility infrastructure. Here’s how we put AI to work in covering the advanced air mobility space:

Content Preparation and SEO

We utilize AI to assist with the nuts and bolts of content assembly, including search engine optimization, keyword research, and content briefs. The technical details that make our eVTOL stories findable don't make them readable. Every piece still gets human editorial review before it goes live.

Grammar and Style Assistance

AI gives our content an initial once-over for grammar and style. But don’t worry about robots taking over your favorite advanced air mobility publication. A real editor always does the final review. We’ve learned that AI can catch typos, but it struggles to capture the nuance of whether a startup’s latest announcement represents genuine progress or just another pivot.

Multi-Platform Content Creation

One story, multiple formats. AI helps us create summaries, social media versions, and newsletter snippets from our main articles. Each version gets tailored for its platform, whether that’s LinkedIn posts for eVTOL executives or Twitter threads for aviation enthusiasts. However, each version is also reviewed by our editorial team before publication.

Research and Information Gathering

The low-altitude economy generates massive amounts of data: certification milestones, funding rounds, regulatory changes, technology developments, and urban air mobility trials. AI helps us sift through this vast ocean of information to find the stories that matter to you. But here’s the important part: we fact-check everything. AI might find the lead about a new eVTOL prototype, but our reporters and editors verify the claims.

Archive Search and Content Discovery

We’ve been covering advanced air mobility since before most people knew what eVTOL meant. AI helps us search our archives to surface relevant background information and connect current stories to historical context. It’s like having an instant institutional memory of every startup pivot, every certification delay, and every infrastructure announcement.

External AI-Generated Content

Sometimes, we publish content that includes AI-generated information from external sources, such as market projections, aircraft performance specifications, and regulatory timeline comparisons. When we do this, we mark it clearly. You’ll know when you’re reading AI output versus human reporting.

Editorial Standards and Human Oversight

Here’s what doesn’t change: our commitment to accuracy and editorial independence. We treat AI output like any other source material. It needs verification, context, and editorial judgment. Our journalists still make the calls about what’s newsworthy and how to tell the story of an industry where hype and reality often blur together.

The advanced air mobility industry adopts new technologies to enhance operations, making them safer, more efficient, or more scalable. We apply the same standard to our use of AI. It makes us faster and more thorough, but it doesn’t replace the human expertise that understands the unique challenges and opportunities of this industry.

Transparency

When AI plays a substantial role in our reporting process, we’ll tell you about it. We’ll explain how we utilized the technology and the steps we took to ensure accuracy and maintain editorial standards.

This policy will evolve as AI technology advances and we gain a deeper understanding of its applications in journalism. However, our core mission remains the same: delivering accurate, timely, and relevant coverage of the low-altitude economy and the advanced air mobility industry that you depend on.
