Adults & Professionals · Research & Analysis · ~5 min read
The premise
AI can analyze a poster draft for text density, font sizes, and color contrast against viewing-distance guidelines.
What AI does well here
- Score each section on word count vs recommended density
- Flag fonts smaller than 24pt and low-contrast color pairs
What AI cannot do
- Decide what content is essential to the scientific story
- Replace feedback from a peer who has stood in front of the poster
Key terms in this lesson
Practice this safely

- 1Ask AI to explain posters in plain language, then underline anything that sounds uncertain or too broad.
- 2Give it one detail from "AI and Poster Text Density Audit: Reading-from-Six-Feet Check" and ask for two possible next steps plus one reason each step might be wrong.
- 3Check design against a trusted source, teacher, adult, expert, or original document before you use it.
