Depends on the program. The funder sets the rule in each program's guidelines, so check the program a PI is applying to.

Where this comes from
The funder's own words, from its own pages.
Developing a Letter of Intent for the ACCP Clinical Pharmacy Research Challenge (opens in a new tab)
The use of tools that assisted the author(s) with generating text or images must be described. The description should include the specific tool and how it was used to create text or images used in the manuscript.
If AI tools were used to assist with data analysis, the specific tool and description of what it performed should be included in the methods section in the body of the manuscript.
If no use of Artificial Intelligence was employed the authors must clearly indicate so in the acknowledgement section.
This is a reading of what the funder has published, and it is not legal advice. A solicitation can set its own rule, so read the funding announcement before a PI applies.
