Our current world dynamic and innovative approach to technology, has developed into an ongoing issue with AI. Now that AI has breached the creative world, coming for artists, authors, and many, many other creatives, it is an important subject to touch on regarding my sensitivity reading business and for the protection of my clients.
As a creative myself, holding more than a decade of experience in the Visual Arts and now holding a professional stance within the world of publishing, I am aware how AI can affect all of us and our jobs. This post is not about opinions and personal preferences; this statement is written as a promise.
I will not feed any Client’s work into AI programs to do my job for me. When I am hired to read a manuscript all of my comments are my own. When I suggest different word choices or sentence structures, the most I will use is a dictionary for synonyms and technical definitions. (Cause those be hard sometimes!)
I do not use AI in my personal life and will not use AI within my business as a Sensitivity Reader (or any other business related endeavours I may indulge in). My goal as a Sensitivity Reader has ALWAYS been about offering a comfortable and safe environment for learning and authenticity for my clients.
That will not change.
