AI Usage and Disclosure Policy Draft Review

AI Usage and Disclosure Policy

Effective: To be set upon final approval and publication.

Draft Status: This policy is draft v0.1, pending legal review and formal adoption. It reflects our intended practices but has not been attorney-reviewed and has not been formally approved.

1. Overview

This policy describes how Florida Principles PAC uses artificial intelligence in its public website, PoliticalPedia civic-information system, and internal drafting and review workflows. It also describes the boundaries and disclosures that apply to each use.

Artificial intelligence tools can generate, classify, summarize, or transform content. When we use AI tools in public-facing contexts, we are committed to human review, accurate disclosure, and clear acknowledgment of limitations.

2. PoliticalPedia — Current V1 Status

PoliticalPedia is the civic information feature on floridaprinciplespac.org. In the current V1 release:

PoliticalPedia responses are generated using deterministic civic data lookups and structured native processing, not live AI generation
Responses reflect structured government data about Florida representatives, districts, elections, and civic processes
No live third-party AI generation model is active in the current V1 production release

When a question falls outside PoliticalPedia's structured data scope, the system returns a clear indication that the requested information is not available rather than generating an unverified answer.

3. PoliticalPedia — Future AI-Assisted Capability

PoliticalPedia is designed to optionally support AI-assisted civic responses. When that capability is activated, we will:

Disclose on the relevant page or interface that AI assistance is active
Identify the category of AI technology or provider in an updated version of this policy
Ensure responses continue to identify their information sources
Maintain the limitations and accuracy warnings described in our Terms of Use

AI-assisted civic responses may contain errors, omit information, misunderstand questions, or reflect outdated data. When AI assistance is active, users will be advised to verify material civic information with authoritative official sources.

4. PoliticalPedia First-Use Disclosure

When AI-assisted response capability is enabled, users accessing PoliticalPedia for the first time will receive a clear disclosure explaining:

That responses may be AI-generated or AI-assisted
That AI systems can make mistakes and that responses should be verified
That questions submitted are processed to generate a response and are subject to our Privacy Policy
How to report suspected errors or concerns about a response

This disclosure foundation is prepared in advance of activating AI-assisted responses. The disclosure will be presented at the interface level; the specific UI implementation will be determined at the time of activation.

5. Drafting and Internal Support Uses

AI tools may be used internally to assist with drafting, classification, research, and workflow support. All AI-assisted drafts intended for public use are subject to human review before publication. AI output is not treated as authoritative without review.

AI must not be used to fabricate citations, invent missing records, impersonate individuals, make final endorsement decisions, or publish adopted governance content without an approved human review step.

6. Prohibited AI Uses

Regardless of context, the following uses are prohibited:

Deceptive synthetic media intended to mislead about a person's words or identity
Undisclosed automated impersonation of people or organizations
Legal advice, individual legal conclusions, or compliance determinations
Individual voter targeting based on inferred personal beliefs or characteristics
Using PoliticalPedia questions or civic-information interactions to infer political beliefs, build voter profiles, or inform political advertising targeting
Inference of private personal information from publicly available data
Automated publication of unreviewed governance decisions or official positions

7. How to Report an AI Concern

If you believe a PoliticalPedia response contains a factual error, reflects a harmful or misleading statement, or raises a disclosure concern, please report it through the Contact page at floridaprinciplespac.org/contact. Include the question you submitted, the response you received, and the nature of your concern. We will review the report in accordance with our Corrections and Accuracy Policy.

9. Changes to This Policy
