AI-DRIVEN EDITING AND WORKFLOW TOOLS

From the American Copy Editors Society #ACESChat: You MUST fact-check any AI-generated content for plagiarism, falsehoods, outdated information, biased or made-up information. Think of AI as making suggestions: You can accept or reject them the same way you would grammar check or spell check. Remember, AI should work for you, not vice-versa. For example, use ChatGPT to take a confusing paragraph and prompt it to “please clarify this text.” The response sometimes clears up the author’s intended meaning.
