How (and why) I use AI to write T&S Insider

Prompted by other newsletter writers, I’m sharing how I use AI in my writing process — and why I’ll never let it draft a full edition.

I'm Alice Hunsberger. Trust & Safety Insider is my weekly rundown on the topics, industry trends and workplace strategies that Trust & Safety professionals need to know about to do their job.

This week, I'm sharing how and why I use AI for writing, and when I don't use AI. To be honest, we probably should have published this a while ago (I think disclosing this information is important), but better late than never.

I know it's easy to gloss over the big red box half way down every newsletter, but I have a special request for job searchers this week.

If you want to update your newsletter settings for T&S Insider or Week in Review, you can do so via Your Account. And you know where to get me if you have any questions about today's edition. Here we go! — Alice

How I use AI for writing

Why this matters: AI is becoming an increasingly helpful writing tool for many people (including myself). It's important to me to be upfront about how I use it, why, and what you can expect as a reader of T&S Insider.

In the year and half since I’ve been writing T&S Insider, I’ve experimented with using AI for writing in a variety of ways. While I wouldn't say I'm reliant on it, it's certainly part of my regular workflow now. So, inspired by other newsletter writers that I admire, I wanted to share how AI helps me write.

The disclosures

Every opinion I share here at T&S Insider is 100% my own, meaning I don't write about or share any links because someone asked me to. But, like everyone, I have some priors that are important to note in a conversation about AI.

Between October and March 2023, I was a freelance adversarial/red team tester for OpenAI prior to GPT-4’s release. 

Since March 2025, I have been Head of Trust & Safety at Musubi, where we use frontier AI models for Trust & Safety work. Part of my role includes marketing/ content creation about the tools we build and how AI can be used for Trust & Safety. 

Going forward, I will remind T&S Insider readers about this at the top of newsletters in which I talk about AI.
