       | This policy position feels necessary, considering how thoroughly
       | reviewed GAI output can be indistinguishable from human work
       | product- otherwise, what would an outright ban on GAI use here
       | look like, and how would it even be enforced?
       | 
       | Also, I am somewhat moved by this example[1] of GAI's beneficial
       | applications on Wikipedia: image generation for "presenting
       | rendition for subjects that can't simply be captured", like for
       | Burdian's Ass[2]. Many pages for abstract ideas could benefit an
       | apt visual representation.
