AI, EDITING, AND ETHICS:
NAVIGATING THE FUTURE OF PUBLISHING
WITH CLARITY AND CONFIDENCE

Artificial Intelligence is transforming the publishing landscape—but for editors, authors, and other publishing professionals, it’s raising just as many questions as it is opportunities. In this interactive session, Jenn T. Grace, founder of Publish Your Purpose, will explore the rapidly evolving role of AI in writing, editing, and publishing.

We’ll discuss what editors and authors need to know about AI’s impact on the industry, including:

●      How platforms like Amazon are monitoring AI-generated content and the potential implications for book visibility and sales

●      Why transparency between authors and editors about AI use is critical, and the kinds of questions you should ask during your intake process

●      The ethical considerations and permissions involved when AI tools are used at any stage of the editorial process

●      How editors can remain indispensable thought partners in an age when AI tools are becoming more sophisticated

●      The role professional organizations like the Editorial Freelancers Association could play in setting industry standards for AI use

Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of both the risks and opportunities AI presents in publishing, practical strategies for navigating client conversations about AI, and ideas for future-proofing their editorial practice.
