  Recent work investigating the impact of winds and outflows from active
galactic nuclei (AGN) on the habitability of exoplanets suggests that such
activity could be deleterious for the long-term survival of planetary
atmospheres and the habitability of planets subject to such winds. Here, we
discuss the relative importance of the effect of AGN winds compared to stellar
winds and the effect of the planet's magnetosphere and stellar irradiation and
conclude that AGN winds are not likely to play a significant role in the
evolution of atmospheric conditions in planets under conditions otherwise
favorable for habitability.
