Connersville Cable Board forwards TV3 AI policy to Board of Works, prohibits AI editing of official footage
Summary
The board approved forwarding a new TV3 AI policy that bans AI from altering official meeting footage and lists allowed uses (script drafting, transcription assistance, metadata tagging, audio cleanup, grant-writing support, and promotional design), sending it to the Board of Works for adoption.
Director John Pause introduced a draft AI use policy for TV3 at the Feb. 25 meeting, saying the policy was prompted by a failure of YouTube and a hard drive at a recent City Board of Works meeting and by concerns about using AI to 'fix' official recordings.
The policy, as presented, states that "AI shall not alter, enhance, edit, summarize, or modify official meeting footage in a manner that changes meaning, context or record integrity." It lists approved AI uses limited to script drafting, promotional graphic design and creation, meeting transcription assistance, metadata tagging and archive indexing, audio cleanup, grant-writing support (subject to review), and workflow optimization.
Board members discussed notification and disclosure protocols for any AI-assisted work. Member Clint Brown asked whether there should be an official notice when AI is used or when AI was not used to protect TV3’s integrity; Director Pause noted the concern and said he would make a record of how to handle disclosures moving forward.
Clint Brown moved to forward the draft AI policy to the City Board of Works for formal adoption; Mayor Chad Frank seconded. The chair recorded the motion as carried by voice vote with all members assent.
The board did not adopt the policy at this meeting; instead it referred the draft to the Board of Works for formal consideration and any required ordinance or procedural step.
