Human-First AI Commitment

In tools and features we provide to our users, community and teams VocaTales is committed to utilizing Artificial Intelligence to serve, emphasize, and enhance the scope of human creativity—not to replace it.

Resource, Not Replacement

VocaTales will never develop or integrate AI tools which can be used to fully automate the writing process. While AI may be used as a resource throughout the various stages of writing, the creative choices and expressive goals of humans will always be the first and foremost necessary conditions for writing on VocaTales.

Discretionary Use

The decision of whether to use any AI tool or feature available on VocaTales is left to each individual user. AI use of any kind on VocaTales will always be 100 percent optional.

Process Transparency

In all content produced by VocaTales, there will be no ambiguity as to what has been generated by AI and what has been created by humans. We will always be completely clear and transparent about exactly where and how AI has contributed to our content. We highly encourage our users to follow the same strict standards of openness and clarity, and will endeavor to provide easy and intuitive means for them to do so. Content which doesn’t follow these high standards cannot be monetized on the platform.

Fearless Exploration

VocaTales will not shy away from comparing and contrasting human written and AI generated content, nor exclude the possibility that AI might be capable (now or in the future) of producing worthwhile, thought-provoking, expressive- seeming content. We view the use of generative AI and the assessment of its products as an opportunity to explore what makes human creativity, human expression, and human consciousness unique – our own humble view is that the human touch will always prove distinct and immutable. But we aren’t afraid to have that view challenged, and encourage our users to adopt a similar attitude of confident curiosity.

Weightless Evaluations

VocaTales will never use AI to evaluate the quality of user generated content, including user-provided feedback, or its adherence to our content, feedback, and editing standards. Wherever an option for AI generated feedback is provided, that feedback should be understood as a highly fallible suggestion at most, actionable only to the extent that it corresponds with human evaluation and discretion. In assessing the subjective qualities of creative work, humans will always have the final say.
