The AI Affinity Group is a member-led community focused on exploring how artificial intelligence tools impact the work of editorial professionals.

It serves as a space for freelancers to:

• Discuss AI trends, ethics, and implications specific to editing, writing, and publishing
• Share tools, techniques, and best practices for responsibly integrating AI into workflows
• Ask questions and exchange perspectives on the evolving relationship between AI and freelance editorial work
• Build community and support as members navigate changes in the industry

The group may host meetings, roundtable discussions, or collaborative resource-sharing sessions depending on member interest and leadership involvement. Like other EFA affinity groups, it is designed to foster peer connection around a shared interest, not to offer formal training or certification.
