AI use
How shrinkiatry does and doesn't use artificial intelligence in making this site.
We write about AI, so we should be clear about how we use it ourselves.
Human judgment, psychiatrist review
shrinkiatry's content is directed by people and reviewed by a board-certified psychiatrist. AI tools may assist with parts of the process, such as drafting, research organization, or editing, but the substance, the claims, and the final word are set by human editorial judgment and by Dr. Refai's review. Nothing is published just because a model produced it.
Sourcing is verified by people
Facts and citations are checked against primary sources by a person, not accepted on a model's say-so. We don't publish AI-generated statistics or references without verifying them.
No AI medical advice
shrinkiatry doesn't use AI to give medical advice, and you shouldn't either. As we explain in AI in psychiatry, a general-purpose chatbot isn't a clinician and shouldn't be relied on for care, especially in a crisis.
How AI systems may use this site
We welcome AI search and assistant systems reading and citing shrinkiatry, and we publish structured data to make our content legible to them. We ask that they cite the source. Republishing substantial content or using it to train commercial models without permission isn't permitted; see copyright.
