1. Our stance on AI

StoryVerse supports the responsible use of artificial intelligence (AI) as a creative assistance tool — not as a full replacement for human creativity. Stories on StoryVerse should always reflect meaningful human input, imagination, and intent.

2. AI-generated cover images

You may use AI-generated images as cover art for your stories, provided that:

• You have the legal right to use those images
• The images do not infringe on copyrights, trademarks, or other intellectual property rights
• The images do not contain illegal, explicit, hateful, or otherwise harmful material

3. AI-assisted story writing

You may use AI tools to assist with:

• Brainstorming and idea generation
• Editing, grammar, and clarity
• Rewriting or expanding specific sections
• Structuring and organizing your story

However, the core idea, creative direction, and final responsibility for the story must belong to you. AI should support your writing, not replace it entirely.

4. Prohibited AI usage

The following types of AI usage are not allowed on StoryVerse:

• Fully automated, mass-generated stories with minimal effort
• Spammy or repetitive AI-generated content
• Deceptive or misleading content created using AI
• Content whose primary purpose is to game the platform or ranking systems rather than tell a genuine story

5. User responsibility

By submitting content that involves AI assistance, you confirm that:

• You have the right to use the AI tools involved
• You take full responsibility for all published content
• Your content does not violate any laws or third-party rights
• Your work reflects meaningful human creative contribution

6. Enforcement

StoryVerse may remove AI-assisted content or restrict accounts if AI is used in a way that results in spam, low-quality output, copyright risk, or harm to the integrity and experience of the platform.
