Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI)

As a disability rights organisation, we welcome the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for its assistive and editing applications. AI that polishes human-generated content is a useful tool, and can remove access barriers, especially for those with cognitive differences. This is a nuanced topic, explored in this excellent blog by one of our Trustees, Katie Robinson.

As AI-use has become increasingly common, we are receiving blogs and job applications that go beyond AI’s assistive purposes. In these submissions, content is being generated directly by AI. If we suspect that your submission has been generated by AI this could lead to a rejection.
