  Your application should reflect your skills, experience, and motivations authentically.
• Use AI wisely:
  It's fine to use AI for ideas or to check spelling and grammar, but don't let it write your answers.
• Why this matters:
  Applications that rely on AI-generated content may be withdrawn. By applying, you confirm your responses are based on your own knowledge and achievements.
