AI Policy

Hi friends and fellow creatives,

AI does not write my books. My novels, stories, and book covers are created by me, without AI-generated text or imagery.

However, AI helps me create the immersive multimedia elements of The Galatean Saga universe—including promotional images, soundscapes, music, and video content.

What AI Does NOT Create

📖 My Writing

  • All narrative prose, dialogue, and storytelling in my books is written by me
  • No AI text generation is used in my published fiction

🎨 Book Covers

  • Book covers are designed by me or commissioned from human artists
  • No AI-generated imagery is used for book covers

What AI DOES Help Create

🎬 Multimedia & Promotional Content As part of my creative journey—including music, visual storytelling, and video production—I use AI as one tool among many to bring The Galatean Saga universe to life beyond the written word.

My Creative Process:

  1. AI Generation: I use AI tools to generate raw material (images, audio, music stems, video clips)
  2. Human Editing & Refinement: I then edit, remaster, layer, and compile these elements using:
    • Open-source software: GIMP, Inkscape, Audacity, LMMS
    • Professional tools: Filmora, and other editing platforms
    • AI-assisted tools: Suno, Midjourney, ChatGPT, ElevenLabs, Kling AI
  3. Creative Direction: Every piece reflects my artistic vision, creative choices, and personal touch

The final multimedia content is a collaboration between human creativity and AI assistance—not raw AI output.

🎨 Tools I Use

For AI-Assisted Generation:

  • Suno (music composition)
  • Midjourney (visual imagery for promotional content)
  • ChatGPT (creative brainstorming and editing assistance)
  • ElevenLabs (voiceover and audio production)
  • Kling AI (video generation)

For Human Editing & Production:

  • GIMP, Inkscape (image editing and design)
  • Audacity, LMMS (audio editing and music production)
  • Filmora (video editing and compilation)

🛡️ My Intentions & Responsibility

  • I use these tools to support personal and creative projects, not for deception, exploitation, or violation of licensing
  • I actively review and respect the Terms of Use for each platform I use
  • If I ever miss a change or unintentionally publish content outside a tool’s allowed scope, I will remove or revise the content immediately upon notification
  • AI assists my multimedia storytelling—it does not replace my writing, my voice, or my creative vision

🤝 Transparency & Fair Use

  • I do not monetize or distribute AI-generated content from tools that limit commercial use
  • I give credit where required and avoid presenting generated content as entirely my own if attribution is necessary
  • My creative process involves layering, editing, remixing, and refining—not just accepting raw AI outputs
  • The Galatean Saga is an experimental multimedia project where AI tools help me explore storytelling across different mediums (music, visuals, video) while the core narrative remains entirely human-written

The Alliance of Independent Authors (ALLi) advises authors to create their own AI Policies. Though not a member, I think it’s a good approach. ALLi’s AI Policy can be read here.

As AI tools and creative norms evolve, this policy will be updated to reflect my current practices.
