How every article on ansaribilal.com is researched, fact-checked, corrected and disclosed — including how AI is and is not used.
Who writes this
Every article on ansaribilal.com is published under a real byline — Ansari Bilal, a self-taught developer who builds and ships the software he writes about. There is no ghostwritten vendor content, no pay-to-play coverage and no sponsored posts. If the site ever earns from a tool, the article will disclose it in the same breath.
How claims are sourced
Load-bearing claims are verified against primary sources before publishing: official documentation, release notes, changelogs, GitHub repositories, benchmark tables and announcements come first; established independent reporting comes second; forum posts and social threads are treated as leads to verify, never as facts in themselves. Numbers are attributed to whoever published them, and claims that could not be verified are either dropped from the article or explicitly labeled as unconfirmed. Opinion is written as opinion.
How AI is used — and not used
Drafting here is AI-assisted and human-verified. AI tooling helps with research synthesis and first drafts; a human selects the topic, checks every load-bearing fact against primary sources, edits the full text and is responsible for what gets published. No article is published without that human pass. First-hand experience is never fabricated: if a post does not rest on the author's own usage, it does not claim that it does — observations are attributed to their actual source. Articles are not made up of AI boilerplate rewrites of other sites' news; each one is written only when there is a specific point of view or an original angle worth the reader's time.
Corrections
When something published here turns out to be wrong, it gets fixed and dated. Corrections appear at the top or bottom of the affected article with the date and what changed — silently rewriting a published claim is against the rules of this site. Spotted a mistake? Email connect@ansaribilal.com with the article URL and the source that contradicts it; corrections are applied and acknowledged quickly.
