AI Transparency

Where AI may assist

AI may assist with research organization, structural suggestions, language review, code, and consistency checks. Its output is candidate material, not automatically fact, opinion, or publishable content.

Human review and responsibility

People decide what to adopt and perform final review. For data, cases, and external claims, we seek verifiable sources and distinguish primary facts, company-reported figures, author accounts, strategic judgments, and unverified projections. Errors are corrected and versions dated when revisions actually occur.

AI assistance does not transfer author responsibility or imply error-free content. Send questions or corrections through a GitHub Issue.

AI search and model-training crawlers differ

OAI-SearchBot helps public pages appear in OpenAI search results; GPTBot may collect material for generative-model training. Their purposes and controls differ, so allowing one does not allow the other.

Ordinary search engines and OAI-SearchBot may discover, index, and cite public pages. robots.txt disallows GPTBot training crawls. Tools that fetch a page at a user's request are not categorically blocked by that training restriction.

Citations still require context

Search snippets and AI answers may compress an argument. When citing the book or methodology, retain the source link and check the evidence quality, applicability boundaries, and version information in the full text.
