How this story was made

An AI model drafted the headline, summary and body at 24 Oct 2026, 11:38 IST from 1 report (ET BrandEquity), in its own words, from the text in their public feeds. The same model then checked every claim against those reports at 24 Oct 2026, 11:38 IST; one unsupported claim and the draft would have been rejected. It went live automatically at 24 Oct 2026, 11:38 IST because that check, and the house-style check, passed. No editor has reviewed it yet; an editor can correct, hold or withdraw it at any time.
