Learn Generative AI Images: Briefs, Rights, and Review
Write a brief before writing a prompt
Describe what the image should communicate, who will see it, and where it will appear. Specify the subject, composition, useful visual details, and elements to avoid. Keep factual labels, logos, product details, and text separate for human verification because generated images may render them incorrectly.
Review the output carefully
Check for visual artifacts, confusing symbols, inaccurate objects, stereotypes, exclusion, and accessibility concerns. Confirm the image supports the message rather than making an unsupported claim. If a person, place, or brand is recognizable, verify that the use is appropriate and authorized.
Understand rights and terms
Tool terms, licenses, and rules for generated output vary and can change. Read the current service terms and applicable organizational policy before publishing. Do not assume that an output is exclusive, accurate, or automatically cleared for commercial use.
Keep a review record
Record the brief, tool used, meaningful edits, reviewer, and final approval. Use a human-created final check for text, accessibility, context, and brand accuracy.
