Disclaimer on Artificial Intelligence
I'm critical of generative AI in general, but also try to stay pragmatic about its use in IT. While I occasionally use AI assistants for research and repetitive tasks, my work remains strictly human-driven.
- Privacy: Your data is never shared with AI models without your consent.
- Transparency: I will discuss any notable AI use with you before starting a project.
- Responsibility: AI-generated code is always thoroughly reviewed and validated.
