Funder AI policy

Can applicants use AI on an application to American Institute of Architects?

Yes, with disclosure.

The AIA Awards FAQ says any use of AI in creating award submissions must be disclosed. Advise the PI to answer the AI questions in the application portal. The page gives no guidance for jurors or reviewers on AI, and no limit on how much AI may be used.

What the funder asks of applicants

  • Disclose any use of AI in creating an award submission. This applies to the AIA Awards portfolio generally. [1]
  • In the application portal, say whether AI was used, which programs or tools were used, and which areas of the application AI affected. [1]

Rules for reviewers

American Institute of Architects has published no rules for reviewers.

Where this comes from

The funder's own words, from its own pages.

  1. Awards FAQ (opens in a new tab)

    American Institute of Architects

    Can I use Artificial Intelligence (AI) in my application? Any use of AI in the creation of award submissions must be disclosed. In the application portal, applicants will be asked to disclose whether AI was used in the creation of submission materials, which programs or tools were used, and which area(s) of the application were impacted by AI.

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.
