PRSA Shares Guidelines for AI Use

The group established these last November

A leading public relations association has released ethical guidelines around the use of generative AI in the profession.

In late November, the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) published "Promise & Pitfalls: The Ethical Use of AI for Public Relations Practitioners," a document sharing best practices for professionals using the technology. It cites examples of improper use, such as lack of supervision of automatically generated materials, generation of "astroturf" campaigns, unfair vetting of job candidates, misuse of private data, spread of misinformation and disinformation and more.

A press release regarding the document explains that the guidance is framed around longstanding provisions within the association's code of ethics, including "disclosure of information," "competition" and "enhancing the profession."
