## What's new

- **An `AI aids` panel on the assessment page.** Assessors can ask for an `AI summary`, use
  `Find evidence` to list quotes taken word for word from the answers, and run `Check consistency`,
  `Check eligibility and budget` and `Possible duplicates`. Everything is labelled as AI-generated
  or advisory. See [Assessing an application](/assessor/assessing-an-application#ai-aids).
- **The score stays with the assessor.** The aids never fill in, suggest or change a score, and the
  text they return isn't stored. They read only what the assessor can see, so blind review holds.
- **Off unless you turn it on.** Turn on `AI assessor aids` on a round's `Workflow` step before you
  publish it; it can't be changed afterwards. It also needs assessor aids switched on in your
  organisation's [AI assistance](/integrations/ai-assistance) settings.
- **See how much they're used.** A round's `View` shows how many assessments used AI aids, such as
  `3 Assessments used AI aids`. See
  [Assessment rounds](/administrator/assessments/assessment-rounds).
