AI-Generated Images: Briefs, Rights, and Human Review

Plan image-generation requests with a visual brief, then check outputs for artifacts, accessibility, representation, usage terms, and misleading details.

Part of Generative AI & AI Tools Course

Image-generation tools can help explore ideas, but an output is not automatically accurate or cleared for every use. Start with a visual brief and decide how the result will be reviewed.

Describe the communication goal

Define the audience, subject, composition, placement, and constraints. Avoid asking the tool to render factual labels or brand marks that need to be exact. Handle verified text and approved logos separately.

Review the result

Look for distorted details, misleading context, stereotypes, accessibility problems, and unintended likenesses. Ask whether the image supports the message honestly and whether a viewer might mistake a generated scene for documentary evidence.

Check current terms and permissions

Read the tool's current usage terms and follow organizational policy before publication. Confirm rights for source images, reference material, and any recognizable person or brand. Keep an approval record and make a human responsible for the final asset.
