Decision inputs
Facts that change the policy answer
Within product and design, this request uses a creative brief, brand rules and intended context to produce candidate illustrations or interface imagery. Both belong in the submission before any policy route is trusted.
- 1Task and owner
- Visual designer wants to generate images for a product interface. Record the person who will stand behind candidate illustrations or interface imagery after the tool has finished.
- 2Information involved
- A creative brief, brand rules and intended context. Include attachments and connected sources when deciding the highest information classification.
- 3Tool and account
- An approved company account. A personal login can handle information differently from the company-managed version of the same tool.
- 4Intended result
- The expected result is candidate illustrations or interface imagery. Record the audience and the next system in the chain, rather than describing the output only as a draft.
- 5Consequence if it is wrong
- Generated assets can reproduce protected styles, stereotypes or misleading depictions. The policy route should reflect this possible harm instead of relying on how ordinary the task sounds.
- 6Human review
- brand and product design owners should inspect, change, reject or stop the result. A final glance after an automatic action would not give that owner meaningful control.
Possible policy routes
The task name alone cannot decide it.
A published workplace policy can return different answers for the same task. These are the practical branches worth encoding.
A routine policy route may be possible
A routine route is easier to justify when the exact account is approved, only the minimum internal information is used, candidate illustrations or interface imagery remains within the stated purpose, and brand and product design owners reviews it before use.
Approval may be required
Specialist approval becomes relevant if the account or data handling is uncertain, generated assets can reproduce protected styles, stereotypes or misleading depictions, or candidate illustrations or interface imagery reaches people or systems beyond the requester’s authority.
The request may need to stop or change
The company may need a safer design when restricted information would enter an unapproved service, the output would act before brand and product design owners can intervene, or review rights, representation, provenance and fit before shipping cannot be maintained. Consider less information, a controlled account or a non-AI process.

Questions people ask
About this AI use
Is using AI to generate images for a product interface automatically allowed?
Permission depends on the facts submitted for this request. A different tool, information class, region or use of candidate illustrations or interface imagery can produce another route.
Which facts should be submitted before work begins?
Describe candidate illustrations or interface imagery, identify a creative brief, brand rules and intended context, name the exact tool and account, explain who will receive or rely on the output, and state how brand and product design owners will review it.
How should a later reviewer understand this decision?
Preserve who accepted candidate illustrations or interface imagery, when they did so and which rule version they applied. A classification and controlled reference may be enough when copying a creative brief, brand rules and intended context would create unnecessary risk.
