Yes, you just saw that em-dash there. To be honest, we’ve been seeing it more than ever before. We’ve used that punctuation plenty over the years, but now it seems to have become the signature of everyone’s favorite AI tools. As a result, some readers suspect we might be letting AI write our stories. Nothing could be further from the truth.
As innovative conservationists and storytellers, of course, we’re interested in new tools that can speed up our work or support our efforts to raise global awareness. But we also believe in the power of the human voice, the personal touch our journalists and writers bring to this magazine. That’s why we encourage our team to use tools like AI only in supportive ways: for drafting ideas, guidance, or inspiration. Never to shape the articles or craft the stories themselves.
The stories you read in Ubuntu Magazine are written by our talented team, each bringing their own voice and experiences to the page. They showcase the remarkable projects these hardworking conservationists are contributing to. We believe in the power of personal storytelling, not only in the stories of conservationists themselves, but also in the personal touch our team brings to everything you see and read in our magazine.
We hope you’ve enjoyed this latest issue. If you haven’t had time to read it yet, you can find it here.
