Content Disclaimer

1. What content is AI-generated

The following types of content on this site are generated or augmented by AI models:

• Event summaries — News events are processed by AI to extract structured data including titles, summaries, locations, impact scores, and entity mentions
• Intelligence briefings — Periodic analytical briefings are drafted by AI based on recent event data
• Impact & severity scores — Numerical scores (0–100) assigned to events are AI-generated assessments, not official measurements
• Conflict status — Classifications such as "escalating", "active", or "de-escalating" are algorithmic determinations, not expert assessments
• Entity classification — Whether an entity is categorised as a person, organisation, or other type is determined by AI

2. Known limitations

AI-generated content on this site may:

• Contain factual errors — Including incorrect dates, locations, casualty figures, or event descriptions
• Hallucinate information — Present plausible-sounding but fabricated details not present in source material
• Misattribute actions — Incorrectly assign actions, statements, or responsibility to the wrong parties
• Reflect model biases — Exhibit geographical, political, cultural, or linguistic biases from training data
• Lack context — Omit critical nuance, historical context, or competing perspectives
• Be outdated — Reflect information that was current at processing time but has since changed

3. This is not a news source

Global Crisis Monitor is not a news organisation. It does not employ journalists, does not have editorial oversight, and does not fact-check content. The site aggregates and processes publicly available information using automated systems.

Content on this site should not be cited as a primary source, shared as verified news, or used as the basis for reporting. If you encounter information here that concerns you, please verify it through established news organisations and official sources.

5. Sensitive content

By its nature, this site covers armed conflicts, humanitarian crises, terrorism, and other distressing topics. Content may reference violence, casualties, displacement, and human suffering. Viewer discretion is advised.

The presentation of crisis data is intended to inform, not to sensationalise. If any content on this site feels inappropriate, harmful, or insensitive, please let us know — we take such concerns seriously.

6. No editorial position

The site does not take editorial positions on any conflict, political situation, or crisis. AI-generated summaries and classifications are algorithmic outputs and do not represent the views, opinions, or political positions of the site operator.
