Council to add AI disclosure and consider word limits for grant narratives
Summary
After a council member raised concerns about suspected use of generative AI in application narratives, staff agreed to add an AI-disclosure question to the Qualtrics application portal and explore practical word limits for future grant cycles.
Scott Wheeler raised concerns about the suspected use of generative AI tools in writing grant application narratives and advocated for "shorter, personal paragraphs over highly polished, AI-assisted text." The council directed Grant Manager Rachel Toker to add a formal AI‑disclosure question to the Qualtrics application portal and to explore practical word limits for narrative responses in future cycles.
The change was recorded as an action item; staff said they will implement the disclosure question and consider technical constraints that balance clarity, fairness, and administrative review workload.
