How we work
GTA Spotter pairs an automated radar that watches the sources, writes and fact-checks every story with a person who reviews everything we publish, every day. This is how.
The radar
An automated system checks GTA VI sources day and night: Rockstar Games' website and social channels, Take-Two announcements and the main gaming outlets in Spanish and English. When it spots something new, it writes the story and checks, sentence by sentence, that every fact appears in the sources. If an update has no clear source, it does not get published.
A person reviews
Whatever passes that check is published right away, so it reaches you as soon as possible. A person goes through everything we publish every day and removes or corrects anything that falls short. There is one exception: anything that may come from a leak is not published until a person has approved it.
Use of artificial intelligence
We use artificial intelligence to spot news, write each story from its sources, check it against them and translate it. Most stories are published this way, before a person has read them; human review comes afterwards, every day. We do not use AI to make up facts or to create images of the game.
The three statuses
- Confirmed: Announced by Rockstar or Take-Two, or confirmed by several reliable, independent sources.
- Unconfirmed: Reported by outlets or players, but nobody has verified it yet.
- False: Shown to be untrue.
When a fact changes status, we update the story and its updated date.
Sources
Every story links its sources. We write in our own words: we do not copy text from other sites or use their screenshots or videos. The game images we show are the official ones published by Rockstar Games, credited.
What we do not publish
- Leaked or stolen material.
- Story spoilers without a clear warning first.
- Cheat lists or facts that cannot be checked, unless they are marked as "unconfirmed".
Corrections
If you spot a mistake, write to hola@gtaspotter.com. We will review it and, if you are right, fix the story and show the date of the update.
