In addition to my traditional artistic practice, I experiment and work with artificial intelligence, while also writing critically about it. As this dual position may raise legitimate questions, I prefer to explain clearly how I use it and where I draw the line.

How I use it

As a work aid. I employ AI tools for specific tasks: generating header images for posts in the Public Notebook based on prompts I write; translating certain articles into English; locating and cross-referencing bibliography and sources; and organising material. In all these instances, the AI accelerates or assists with work for which the direction, judgement, and responsibility remain mine.

As a subject and material for research. A portion of my work and research contemplates artificial intelligence itself: what occurs when a machine generates something, where the artistic surplus resides, what a system reorganises upon production. In this context, the AI does not assist me: it is that which I investigate and with which I create. When a work is produced by these means, I indicate it.

Where I draw the line

• I write the texts myself. I do not publish as my own an article, essay, or argument drafted by an AI. I use it to translate, cross-reference, and edit, not to think in my stead. And to question it.
• I do not delegate judgement. The selection of topics, the interpretations, and the conclusions are my own decisions, and I assume responsibility for what I publish, whether AI mediates it or not.
• I do not accept data as valid simply because an AI states it. I endeavour to verify citations and figures against their source, and when something cannot be confirmed, I note it within the text itself rather than presenting it as certain.

A tension I do not conceal

The tools I use to generate images have been trained on the work of others, and AI infrastructures possess a material cost and a concentration of power about which I write critically in this very notebook. I do not resolve this tension by pretending it does not exist. I maintain it in plain sight: I use these tools while aware of their implications, and I believe that using them and examining them with distance are part of the same responsibility, not incompatible positions.

Corrections

Should I detect an error in something I have published, I correct it as soon as possible and, when the change is significant, I record it.

This statement shall be updated if my way of working changes.
