Correction: Our Article About AI Use at The New York Times

The original article contained tool names, figures, and architecture claims that we could not verify from a New York Times-owned source. We withdraw those claims.

Correction notice

This page originally described AI use in investigative reporting at The New York Times. On review, we could not verify the named internal tools, processing volumes, external-LLM connections, or claimed results from a source published by the company itself.

Claims withdrawn

  • ▸The functions and deployment scope of 'Cheat Sheet' and 'Echo'
  • ▸The figures of 500 hours of recordings and 10,000 records
  • ▸The claimed OpenAI or Google API architecture, company-wide roadshow, and outcomes

It was inappropriate to present internal operations and results as established facts based only on third-party reporting. We withdraw those claims. If a suitable New York Times-owned case source becomes available, we will update the page and state exactly what it supports.
