Could GenAI write a full draft ICS from a collection of source documents (pub's, reports, patents, PR)? That's not far from the sort of structured input-output we are doing using Claude.ai. Not yet tried a REF ICS, but happy to try it out as an experiment: usual rules about accountable human apply!
