> The purpose of this project is not to restrict or ban the use of AI in articles, but to verify that its output is acceptable and constructive, and to fix or remove it otherwise.

This policy position feels necessary, considering how thoroughly reviewed GAI output can be indistinguishable from human work product- otherwise, what would an outright ban on GAI use here look like, and how would it even be enforced?

Also, I am somewhat moved by this example[1] of GAI's beneficial applications on Wikipedia: image generation for "presenting rendition for subjects that can't simply be captured", like for Burdian's Ass[2]. Many pages for abstract ideas could benefit an apt visual representation.
