AI Disclosure

About This Disclosure

I believe in transparency with my readers. This page explains how I use artificial intelligence (AI) in creating content for this blog.

How I Use AI Tools

Research and Information Gathering

I use AI tools to help research cybersecurity topics, including:

  • Gathering information on emerging threats and vulnerabilities
  • Exploring different perspectives on security topics
  • Identifying trends in the cybersecurity landscape
  • Summarizing technical documentation and research papers

Content Creation and Editing

AI assists me throughout the writing process:

  • Drafting: AI may help generate initial drafts or sections of articles
  • Editing: AI tools assist with grammar, clarity, and sentence structure
  • Organization: AI helps organize complex technical information
  • Idea Development: AI assists in brainstorming and expanding on topics

Extent of AI Use

The level of AI involvement varies by article:

  • Some posts may be substantially created with AI assistance
  • Some posts may use AI only for editing and refinement
  • Some posts may involve AI heavily in research but less in writing

I review all AI-generated content before publishing, but the degree of AI involvement can be significant.

My Review Process

As an individual blogger, I make reasonable efforts to:

  • Review AI-generated content for obvious errors
  • Check that information seems plausible and relevant
  • Ensure the content aligns with the topic
  • Verify key facts when practical

However, I am not a team of experts, and my review process has limitations.

Why I Use AI

AI tools allow me to:

  • Produce content more efficiently
  • Cover a broader range of topics
  • Research subjects more thoroughly
  • Maintain a more consistent publishing schedule

Understanding AI Limitations

It's important to know that AI can:

  • Generate plausible-sounding but incorrect information
  • Miss important nuances in complex topics
  • Provide outdated information
  • Make logical errors that may not be immediately apparent

This is why reader verification is essential (see Terms of Use).

My Commitment

I am committed to:

  • Being transparent about my use of AI
  • Making reasonable efforts to review content for quality
  • Clearly directing readers to verify important information
  • Updating this disclosure as my AI use practices evolve
