Guidance for Authors and Illustrators for the Use of AI in Creative Work

by Penguin Random House U.S.|September, 2026

As AI continues to evolve, we know it brings new questions about what these tools mean for your work and creative process. Wherever you are in thinking about AI, Penguin Random House has developed a one-page resource to help you navigate these decisions: Guidance for Authors and Illustrators on the Use of AI in Creative Work.

Whether or not you choose to use AI for any aspect of your process, we respect and support that choice. This resource offers practical guidance around transparency, copyright, accuracy, bias, confidentiality, and fraud.

As technology and regulations evolve, this guidance will be updated. If you have any questions about the use of AI in your project, please reach out to your editor. They are happy to discuss your plans and help you navigate evolving best practices.
