Our current approach to AI

The use of artificial intelligence is a disrupting trend that all creative and media industries are contending with today. As of fall 2025, our non-profit station has set interim policy on it’s use within our organization.

Current Policy

Further next steps regarding AI

The NCRA, of which CHLY 101.7FM is a member, has posted a statement on artificial intelligence in our sector that can be found here. Our next steps will be informed by our own policy on AI use, further internal staff and volunteer discussion, and ongoing discussion in the coming years with other campus-community NCRA member stations across Canada.

Past practices

On-air use

  • We can say that the use of AI is generally avoided for on-air purposes at our station (ie: no AI-generated audio or voice-overs).

Off-air use

  • Staff are currently experimenting with AI for draft outlines for internal and external documents.

  • Some producers are using software supported by AI for creating transcripts of their programs (ie: Otter or Decript).
