Disclaimer
With the improvements and expansion of AI-powered tools, we want to be as transparent as possible as to what uses and tools are acceptable for freelancers when creating content on The Urban Writers platform.
Freelancers on The Urban Writers platform are permitted to use the Dibbly-powered AI tool, KIP, on projects only under the condition that they have received express permission from the customer to do so. KIP is a chatbot developed by Dibbly that is designed to assist writers in the creative writing process. While KIP can provide helpful tips and guidance, it is important to remember that it is not a substitute for professional writing or editing.
Freelancers are expected to create original written, visual, or voiced content as contracted by their customer. The use of any AI tools other than KIP, or the use of tools for the production of content without modification by the freelancer, or any use of AI in an order without express permission from the customer, is prohibited. It is important that writers verify the relevance and reliability of any sources and citations provided by AI before using them in their work. All AI-generated content must be modified by the freelancers to ensure veracity, appropriateness, accessibility, and originality.
Allowing freelancers the use of KIP is optional, however anyone who chooses to use KIP accepts that:
- Any content generated by our AI systems will be used for machine learning purposes to improve the accuracy, quality, and relevance of our content over time.
- We protect the privacy of our users and ensure that any data used to train our AI systems is collected with user consent and used in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
Third Party AI detection Tools
The use of AI detection tools by third party suppliers does not guarantee accuracy or completeness of any content, and no representation is made as to its accuracy, completeness, or reliability for any content that is produced on the Platform, and checked by external AI detectors. The use of AI detection tools by third party suppliers does not constitute the need to revise the content produced. All content produced will follow our conventional revision policies. Our revision policy does not allow requesting changes to the document based on third party AI detection tools used, or based on the speculation of AI tools being used in the content creation process. While these tools may prove useful in certain contexts, they are not always accurate and writers cannot be asked to make changes in accordance with their findings.
Our revision policy can be reviewed here: https://theurbanwriters.com/pages/refund-and-revision-policy. Please note this policy stands as is and no revisions can be offered or requested based on external AI detection tools used, or any speculation on whether AI tools were used in the content creation process.
In the event that customers suspect the misuse of AI tools by freelancers, or the unapproved use of these tools, our Platform Success team will conduct a thorough review and present the customer with a report of the findings. Based on these findings, the team will provide the customer with options to move forward.
