Artificial Intelligence
Transparency is key – should we ever generate an image or text solely or in part, using Generative AI, there will be a disclaimer associated with the image or the text stating that it is AI generated, the AI name and the prompts that were used.
Generative AI is not yet capable of creating Māori knowledge at an expert level. However, any information that utilises Generative AI, will always be checked by humans and the above disclaimer applied. No information that us generated with Generative AI should be considered as authoritative.
AI chatbot disclaimer
This site and our servers do not use any chatbots, AI agents, LLM’s etc.
