Authors Guild publishes AI guidelines: never accuse writers on detector scores alone
lmoroney · x · 2026-10-19
- The Authors Guild published AI guidelines for publishers: every publisher should have a written AI policy spelling out allowed uses.
- Detector use must be transparent, and a detector score should never alone justify accusing a writer — even the best detectors err; treat it as the start of a conversation.
- The Guild opposes forcing authors to log their writing process, while supporting those who choose to. The author argues these principles extend to writing classes and team blogs.
