Nottinghamshire Live Editor Natalie Fahy said the following:
"Dear readers,
"At Nottinghamshire Live we always aim to give our readers the best experience. Whether that's being first with breaking news, or offering you insight and opinion on what's going on in your neighbourhood, we pride ourselves on being the biggest and most trusted source of news in Nottinghamshire.
"We also like to try and take advantage of new developments in our industry when the opportunity presents, and if we think it will be right for us and for readers.
"That's the reason I am writing to you today: to let you know about a new experiment we are running across our site involving Artificial Intelligence tools.
"You might see a bullet point summary at the top of some of our longer articles, which we hope will help you get a sense of what you're about to read and improve the experience for you.
"These have been generated using an AI tool, and will always be checked over by a news editor before being added to articles. Any article published with this summary will have a sentence at the bottom to let you know AI has been used too. You can see one of the first ones we tried here.
"We may also try some further AI experiments in the future, but we'll always let our readers know what we're doing.
"I would love to know what you think about these summaries if you come across them, so please do email me at natalie.fahy@reachplc.com.
"In the meantime, please continue enjoying our journalism across the site as you always have done."
