AI Disclaimers & Protections

For Authors
For Publishers & Service Providers
Don’t Let Others Use AI with Your Book Without Permission

Use this disclaimer if you do not want AI used to rewrite or make major edits to your manuscript without your approval. It is best placed in your editing agreement, publishing contract, or service agreement before editing starts.

Disclaimer
Publisher shall not upload the Work or any of Author’s personal information to consumer-facing AI systems for purposes such as generating summaries, assessments, or marketing copy without written permission from the author or as otherwise agreed to hereunder; and when such permission is granted, it shall ensure that the manuscript is not used by third-party AI companies for training, such as by opting out of allowing training in user settings.

Set Clear Rules for Author AI Use

Use this clause if you are a publisher and want clear expectations around an author’s use of AI-generated content in a manuscript. It can require authors to disclose AI use and can also make clear that authors are not required to use AI to create text for the book.

Disclaimer
Author shall not be required to use generative AI or to work from AI-generated text. Author shall disclose to Publisher if any AI-generated text is included in the submitted manuscript, and may not include more than [a de minimis/5%] AI-generated text.

Don’t Let Others Use AI to Edit Your Book

To prevent injecting any AI-generated text into an author’s work, publishers should not use AI to substantively edit manuscripts, with the exception of basic spelling and grammar- checking applications.

Disclaimer
Publisher shall not upload the Work or any of Author’s personal information to consumer-facing AI systems for purposes such as generating summaries, assessments, or marketing copy without written permission from the author or as otherwise agreed to hereunder; and when such permission is granted, it shall ensure that the manuscript is not used by third-party AI companies for training, such as by opting out of allowing training in user settings.

AI FOR AUTHORS: WHAT HELPS, WHAT HURTS, AND WHAT ACTUALLY MATTERS
SATURDAY, MAY 16, 2026
1:45 p.m.-2:30 p.m.
GSU Dunwoody Campus, 2101 Womack Rd, Dunwoody, GA 30338, Building NC auditorium and cafe

The Atlanta Writers ClubBookLogix is pleased to present this special session in partnership with the Atlanta Writers Club at their May meeting.

Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing publishing, but much of the conversation has created more confusion than clarity. Authors are hearing mixed messages, while publishers, retailers, and courts are still defining the rules in real time.

This practical, balanced session explores where AI may have limited value, where it can create real risk for authors, and how careless use can affect credibility, reader trust, retailer acceptance, and book sales. We’ll also discuss current legal developments, emerging industry standards, and practical ways writers can protect their work and publishing options.

This is not a tools demo or a pro-versus-anti AI debate. It is a clear-eyed conversation for authors who want to stay informed and make smart decisions in a rapidly changing landscape.

You’ll learn:

  • The current state of AI in publishing
  • Key legal and industry developments to watch
  • How retailers and distributors are responding
  • Common risks authors often overlook
  • How to spot signs of AI-generated writing and imagery
  • Practical ways to protect your work, rights, and future opportunities
