How we use AI

Archived article texts are kept as they appeared historically, cleaned of navigation and advertisements only. We do not run old posts through AI rewriters or update them to sound more modern. What was published in 2018 still reads like 2018.

AI is used to draft new evergreen guides and site structure, not to rewrite old posts or invent news. A human mediator or editor outlines the topic, checks the draft for accuracy, and rewrites anything that misses the mark or sounds like a chatbot.

We do not use AI to generate fake case studies, fabricate expert quotes, or write "news" articles about events that did not happen. If a guide includes an example, it is either anonymized from real mediation patterns or clearly labeled as hypothetical.

AI helps with structure and speed. It can turn a bullet list of mediation steps into readable paragraphs, suggest clearer phrasing, or flag legal terms that need explanation. It cannot replace the judgment of someone who has sat through a hundred family mediations.

Every piece is reviewed by a human editor who knows Irish family law and mediation practice. That editor has the authority to rewrite, reject, or send the draft back for another pass.

We do not use AI to answer contact form inquiries, generate automatic replies, or impersonate a mediator. If you email us, a person reads it and a person replies.

AI does not have access to client files, session notes, or any confidential mediation material. It works only on public facing content, using general knowledge and the instructions we give it.

We review this policy annually. If our use of AI changes in a way that affects accuracy or transparency, we will update this page and note the date of the change.
