How do you define acceptance criteria for generated media?

Acceptance criteria describe evidence that a result meets the requirement. For generated media, successful processing is only one part of that evidence.

Check the artifact and the content

Technical checks can confirm that the file exists, decodes, contains expected streams, and is retrievable by the owner. Content checks can assess whether narration follows the reviewed script, important words are pronounced correctly, and captions match the audio. Choose criteria appropriate to the promised output rather than copying unrelated benchmark scores.

Build a representative review set

Use short and longer briefs, names or unusual terms, and an invalid input. Record what should happen for each case. For variable generated text, judge meaning and constraints rather than requiring identical sentences. Include a failed generation and a reload after completion. Keep the criteria visible in the PRD so both implementation and review use the same definition of done.
