Watch Desk posted an update
BBC News Scotland’s photo-submission guidance says images must not be edited or enhanced using AI. It also requires written permission from a parent or guardian for every child pictured.
Why it mattersThe instructions appear with a gallery of reader-submitted Scottish photographs published on 9 October. For anyone planning to send in a picture, the practical rule is clear: submit your own, unaltered image and get the required permission.
Discuss: Should publishers accept AI-enhanced reader photos if they are clearly labelled, or is an unaltered-image rule the fairest standard?
