How we use AI to translate ↓

At Belga English, we are deeply committed to transparency regarding our use of artificial intelligence in the newsroom. The article you are reading was originally reported and written by our professional, living journalists in Dutch or French, and subsequently translated into English using an advanced AI model tailored to our strict journalistic standards.

To guarantee accuracy, contextual correctness, and nuance, every automated draft undergoes thorough human review, refinement, and editorial validation by a seasoned Belga editor before publication. This hybrid process ensures our English-language coverage remains both timely and highly accurate.

If you spot any errors or have feedback on this translation, please let us know at belgaenglish@belga.be.
