    So writers can use AI tools if they want to and the company is okay with it, but cannot be forced to work with it, and if they do then the company can't get out of paying writers by saying that part of the material was written by an LLM because anything AI written can't be counted as source material. Am I understanding this correctly?

    I've heard from writers saying they like using AI language models for idea generators or other things and ones that have experience being forced to use them and finding that it is more effort to correct the output into something usable than just rewriting from scratch. So if I'm understanding this right this sounds like it should keep either kind of writer happy and protected.

      Yeah the ai tools are legitimately useful, I use them for exploring research ideas and rephrasing search queries in foreign languages

      They are often wrong on numbers and facts but occasionally they spit something interesting out that can be followed up on
