Human Creative
Authority.
HCA-6 — the Human Creative Authority Framework — is part of Cameron DeWitt Ruiz’s broader work on human creativity and AI. It informs the emphasis on creative contribution, process, and documentation.
The full published manuscript of the Human Creative Authority Framework and HCA-6 is coming Winter 2026.
Join the manuscript waitlist through Creative AI 360 to be notified when it is available.
Creative AI 360 provides the broader creative-operations context. The Publishing Division focuses that thinking on publishing and rights infrastructure.
Evidence before assumptions
Make the human
contribution visible.
Whether your process starts with a notebook, a studio session, or an AI-assisted workflow, useful documentation answers practical questions: who contributed, what they contributed, what tools were used, and how the work changed.
02 / Provenance
Where did it come from?
Keep source references, permissions, working files, tool information, and versions together.
03 / Rights readiness
What needs review?
Flag unresolved contributions, third-party material, incomplete permissions, and disclosure questions.
Documentation supports a clearer rights conversation. It does not guarantee copyright eligibility, establish ownership by itself, or replace qualified legal review.
A practical documentation path
Capture the process.
Keep the context.
Build a record while the creative choices are still fresh. That record can follow the work into collaboration, administration, and future review.
