**AI Use & Content Integrity Policy

(Lewis for Mayor Committee)**

Core takeaway: The Lewis for Mayor Committee uses human‑written content only, while allowing AI‑assisted design tools for visual poster creation. No AI system generates, edits, or shapes the campaign’s written messaging.

 

1. Purpose of This Policy

This policy provides transparency about how the campaign uses — and does not use — artificial intelligence. It ensures the public understands that all messaging reflects human judgment, not automated systems.

 

2. Human‑Created Written Content

All written communication representing the campaign is created exclusively by humans. This includes:

  • Written statements — press releases, public comments, and official statements

  • Social media text — captions, posts, and updates

  • Policy explanations — issue summaries and informational materials

  • Website text — all narrative content on official campaign pages

No AI system drafts, rewrites, or edits campaign messaging.

 

3. Limited AI Use for Visual Design

The campaign may use AI‑assisted tools only for visual design elements such as:

  • poster layouts

  • background textures

  • color treatments

  • non‑photographic design elements

However:

All written content appearing on any AI‑assisted poster is drafted by humans.

This distinction is central to the policy:

  • AI may assist with visual design

  • AI may not generate or influence words, slogans, statements, or messaging

4. Prohibited Uses of AI

To protect message integrity, the campaign prohibits:

  • AI‑generated political messaging

  • AI‑generated speeches, statements, or talking points

  • AI‑generated social media captions or replies

  • AI‑generated images of real people

  • AI‑generated videos, avatars, or voice cloning

  • AI‑driven voter persuasion, targeting, or profiling

Each item can be expanded:

  • AI‑generated messaging

  • AI‑generated images

  • AI voter profiling

 

5. Permitted Technology Uses

The campaign may use standard digital tools for:

  • scheduling

  • file storage

  • website hosting

  • accessibility support

  • grammar or spell‑checking tools that do not generate content

These tools do not create or influence messaging.

 

6. Human Review & Verification

All public communications undergo human review for:

  • accuracy

  • clarity

  • legal compliance

  • consistency with campaign standards

No AI system participates in decision‑making or approval.

 

7. Transparency Commitment

The Lewis for Mayor Committee publishes this policy to:

  • maintain public trust

  • prevent confusion about content origins

  • ensure ethical communication practices

  • clarify the limited role of AI in visual design only
