You only get a few goes with #GenerativeAI on the free version of #Adobe Acrobat; then it asks you to sign up 
But if a #researcher or #scientist used Acrobat to review a #grant application & used the #GenAI tool, those free goes could be enough to put a substantial part of a confidential grant application into Adobes hands, to do with as they wish, in perpetuity
In the UK this would breach the guidelines of most major #funders of #research

Distribution is an often-overlooked element of the #publishing eco-system.
