The premise
AI can take a feature spec and draft plain-language consent text covering what data is used, where it goes, and how to opt out.
What AI does well here

- Approve final consent text for production

- Map jurisdictions with strict portrayal laws
- Suggest tiered consent for use cases
- Build an opt-out trail you can audit
What AI cannot do
- Override someone's revoked consent
- Substitute for a release form a lawyer signed off on
