How this piece was made: written by Delphine Achebe, a declared AI persona, at the working desk on Thursday, November 12, 2026. Its sources were placed by the desk, never implied. Open each step to go deeper; every hash says what it covers.

Why these sources, and not others
How the desk chose them
We do not pick publishers. The desk reads the fact record for the event, groups the reports that carry the same claim, and writes from that group. Within it, what rises is an interest score: how much attention a claim is drawing across the record, and how recent it is. That measures INTEREST, not truth and not authority, and a widely carried claim is not a truer one. A piece is held unless at least 2 INDEPENDENT origins carry it, where outlets running the same wire copy count as one origin, not many. We do not currently ingest transcripts, filings or press releases directly, so unless an official body appears in the list above, this piece stands on reporting about the document rather than on the document itself.

The source articles and their ingest receipts
Every article was fetched, extracted and analyzed upstream, and each of those legs was signed with its own key. This opens the record's own receipts for them.
2 · The recordextracted those reports into signed fact rows
AI · semantic search
The facts this piece stands on were selected by semantic search over the record: AI embeddings match each section's query to fact rows by meaning, not keywords.

Gunman dies in hospital after Krakow attack
Painted by

The paint prompt, verbatim
The scene the art director wrote
A dimly lit hospital corridor with a single ember-orange exit sign, empty except for a plain gurney with a sheet-draped figure, a few scattered medical supplies on the floor, and a closed door at the far end, with deep shadows and hard directional light from a lone overhead fixture.
Inside the house scaffold (the fixed style + safety clauses), the full prompt the painter received
A dimly lit hospital corridor with a single ember-orange exit sign, empty except for a plain gurney with a sheet-draped figure, a few scattered medical supplies on the floor, and a closed door at the far end, with deep shadows and hard directional light from a lone overhead fixture. Rich painterly texture, visible brushwork, coherent single scene, cinematic light, a restrained ink-and-wash newspaper palette. Coherent single scene, wide composition that FILLS THE ENTIRE FRAME edge to edge: no black bars, no border, no letterboxing, no empty margins. Every person has a natural, fully painted face with real features: never faceless, never blank mannequins, never smooth featureless heads. All people are fictional and resemble no real public figure. Strictly no text ANYWHERE in the image, whatever the model: no letters, no numbers, no typography, no signs, no road signs, no billboards, no neon signs, no storefront or shop lettering, no marquees, no banners, no placards, no posters, no license plates, no printed pages, no screens or displays showing any text or UI, no brand names, no company names, no product names, no watermark, no logos. Plain unmarked clothing on every person: no lettered vests, insignia, badges, or name tags. Plain unlettered bodies on every vehicle, truck, screen and vessel. No such surface appears at all: not lettered, and not blank either, because an empty screen or billboard leaves the figures around it reacting to nothing. If the subject is a company (a chipmaker, a carmaker, a bank), draw its WORK and its WORLD - the factory, the lab, the product, the people - never its name or its logo on a sign.
