"Transparency in AI: Mastering the Art of Writing a Disclosure Statement"

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a modern technology that I have been exploring. I wondered how it could help me in family history blogging. I wrote a couple of blog posts about AI, family history, and blogging. 

One of the things I have been thinking about when writing these blog posts is how to let my readers know if, and when, I am using AI. I have cultivated a loyal reader base and I want to be transparent in my writing. It is important to have a disclosure statement to keep the trust of my readers.

How did I write my disclosure statement about AI? I went to AI and ChatGPT! I asked ChatGPT to "create examples of a disclosure statement for using AI when blogging."

I got five examples, but none of those were quite right. One thing about ChatGPT is if you don't like what you see you can click a regenerate option and get more examples. I got ten new ideas which fit my use better.

I used ideas from a couple of different examples to create my disclosure statement. I put my new AI specific disclosure statement on the right sidebar above my other disclosure statement. The bolded words are copied from ChatGPT 3.5 results. My disclosure statement for AI usage is:

Journey to the Past blog posts uses the assistance of artificial intelligence (AI) tools. While the content reflects my ideas, writing, and research. the AI was used for grammar and style suggestions.

The headlines on this blog may be suggested by AI algorithms. I review and select the most fitting ones to capture the essence of the content.

Some of the images used on this blog were created by AI software. These visuals were designed to complement the content and enhance the reader's experience.

A clear and concise explanation of how AI is used on relevant blog posts will be stated at the end of the blog post.

Next, I needed to create disclosure statements that I could use on each blog post using AI technology. I foresee me using AI in the areas of editing, headlines, images.

Statement for editing: This blog posts used the assistance of artificial intelligence (AI) tools. While the content reflects my ideas, writing, and research. the AI was used for grammar and style suggestions.

Statement for headline: The headline on this blog post was suggested by AI algorithms. I reviewed and selected the most fitting one to capture the essence of the content.

Statement for images: The image used on this blog post was created by AI software. The visual was designed to complement the content and enhance the reader's experience.

I do not plan to use an AI generator to do the writing of the blog posts. If I ever do use AI generated content I would update my disclosure statements.

The use of disclosure statements are to inform my readers about the use of AI and to maintain transparency.
