The AI-Assisted Content Label is a feature that lets authors identify when AI tools played a key role in creating their stories. This helps ensure transparency for readers while maintaining a consistent experience on the platform.
When editing your story, you’ll notice a new category labeled "Add AI Label."
Adding the AI Label to a Story
We require authors to label AI-assisted content for transparency and to maintain reader trust. AI is becoming a common tool for writing, but readers may have different preferences regarding AI's use in storytelling. This label ensures that readers can easily identify stories that used AI during the creation process.
Adding the AI Label to a Story
- Go to the Story Editor for your chosen story.
- Locate the AI-Assisted Content Label section.
- Select the checkbox to label your story as AI-assisted.
- The AI-Assisted Content label will appear on your story.
Where is the AI label visible?
- This icon only appears if the author has marked the story as such. This helps readers quickly identify stories where AI tools contributed to the creation process.
- Once applied, an AI icon will appear next to your story in the Manage Story section, similar to the existing Subscription Story icon.
- Readers browsing the discovery screen will see a small AI icon next to genres for stories labeled as AI-assisted, similar to the existing Subscription Story Icon.
- A small AI icon will also be displayed on the story’s page.
When do I need to add the AI Label?
We understand that there are different levels at which AI can be involved with your work.
You do not need to add the AI label if:
- You use AI for spell-checking
- You use AI to check your grammar
- You use AI to suggest synonyms or alternative word choices
- You use AI for minor edits in clarity, structure, or tone
An example of AI that does what is mentioned above would be the Grammarly plugin. Here is an example of a change made with Grammarly that would not require the AI Label:
Original Text:
The sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in streaks of orange and pink. A cool breeze rustled through the trees, carrying with it the earthy scent of autumn.
Updated with Grammarly:
The sun sank beneath the horizon, coloring the sky in shades of orange and pink. A cool breeze rustled the trees, carrying the earthy scent of autumn.
What's changed?
- The word "dipped" was changed to "sank" for clarity.
- Sentence two was shortened for clarity
The above text is still conveying the same as the original, with minimal changes. We encourage using services similar to Grammarly in order to ensure proper spelling and grammar in your work.
You do need to add the AI label if:
- You use AI to rewrite portions of your story substantially
- You have AI generate dialogue for scenes in your story
- You have AI generate descriptive passages for your story
- You rely on AI to complete entire chapters or significant portions of your story
Here is an example of AI that is substantially changed enough to warrant the AI Label:
Original Text:
The sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in streaks of orange and pink. A cool breeze rustled through the trees, carrying with it the earthy scent of autumn.
Rewritten with AI:
Golden light lingered on the edges of the clouds as the sun sank beneath the hills, leaving trails of fiery orange and soft blush streaks fading into the night.
What's changed?
- This text differs substantially from the original sentence given to the AI
Here is an example of the same scene generated entirely from AI with prompting:
Prompt:
Write a detailed description of a sunset on a cool day in autumn.
AI Written Text:
The sun sank low, casting the sky in fiery hues of orange and crimson that faded into a cool twilight blue. A crisp breeze whispered through the trees, scattering golden leaves that swirled lazily to the ground. The scent of woodsmoke lingered in the air, mingling with the earthy aroma of autumn, as shadows stretched across the quiet landscape.
