AI must not be used for the generation of non-trivial content that is directly incorporated into the final work. All creative expression and authorship must remain the original contribution of the human creators.
Specifically, your use of AI must be limited to de minimis levels. That is, uses so minor or mechanical that they do not affect the copyrightable authorship of your work and, in practical terms, do not alter its human-created nature.
Acceptable De Minimis AI Use
For your guidance, examples of acceptable de minimis AI use typically include:
Generating ideas or high-level story concepts
Technical tasks such as sharpening an image, colour correction, noise reduction, or blurring faces in video
Unacceptable AI Use (Beyond De Minimis)
By contrast, unacceptable AI use beyond de minimis would include:
AI-generated design elements or creative content that meaningfully contributes to the final work
AI-generated material that would be copyrightable if created by a human
AI-generated visual art, illustrations, special effects, or imagery
AI-generated musical compositions, arrangements, or lyrics
