Craft matters more than workflow theater.

Modern creative tools are part of the landscape. IWA does not treat AI-assisted work as something shameful, exotic, or automatically suspect. It is allowed. It is normal. It is also not a substitute for judgment.

Authors may disclose process details when they are relevant, useful, or personally important. Disclosure is not required as a standing condition of publication. The editorial standard is the finished work and the human responsibility behind it.

The publication avoids hype, panic, and argument for its own sake. It focuses on craft, quality, structure, usefulness, reader experience, and the practical realities of publishing in the modern era.
