LLM Statement

An individual has publicly declared a personal policy against using large language models or generative AI for prose, code, or any other tasks, citing a preference for human skills and interaction. The statement outlines specific practices such as writing code deterministically, using brainpower for writing, and seeking help from friends and experts instead of AI tools.

I do not use LLMs or other "Generative AI" for prose or code, nor do I accept it from others as open source contributions.

I do not discuss my prose or code with LLMs.

I do not consult LLMs for projects, contributions, assignments, research, or anything else.

As far as possible and practicable, I have disabled LLM-integration in my tools or replaced tools that don't let me do so.

Requests for me to use LLMs or read content generated by LLMs will be met with disappointment and gentle refusal.

I want to use my skills and engage with other people in the process.

For programming, I write code myself, or or generate it deterministically from higher-level instructions.

For writing, I use my brain and write it myself, revising it as needed.

For proofreading, I ask my friends.

For searching, I use domain-specific search tools and specific websites.

For learning, I seek out books, tutorials, and other educational material made by people.

For extra support, I ask experts in forums, chatrooms, or via email.
