Quality, review, and AI policy¶

Quality is our first priority. Every chapter passes through three stages before we consider it stable: an initial draft, peer review by domain experts, and continuous revision as the field moves.

Human authorship is what makes that work. Our policy on AI is simple:^[1]

1. Chapters originate with a human idea. The arguments a chapter makes, and its framing, come from its named authors.

2. LLM outputs are never a source. Claims are backed by citations, and those citations are the source of truth.

3. Every LLM-assisted passage is reviewed and edited by a human for accuracy and precision before it reaches you.
