AI Manifesto
Oct 23, 2025After seeing an example on cassidoo’s site, I decided to add an “AI Transparency” page to my site as well.
Both she and the
post she links make a really good point about how, if a person or company is
transparent about how they use AI, it helps us trust that their work is more
authentic in general. They recommend adding a page to your site (e.g. /ai)
that details how you make use of generative AI (or not). From the simplest “No
posts on this site are written with generative AI,” to a longer, more detailed
breakdown, the idea is not to cover your bases with legalese, but to be
authentic, clear, and real. It’s not a bad thing to use AI, necessarily. It’s a
tool like any other, and a user needs to understand how it works–pro’s, con’s,
strengths, and dangers. But it’s good to be open about it to help people
understand and gain context for your work.
And if you do decide to add one to your site, you can add your site to this public database of /ai page-having sites!
