AI Usage statement
Arnold Bennett: "Any change, even a change for the better, is always accompanied by drawbacks and discomforts."
Small Guy Technologies recognizes that AI technology has been a large subject of debate and discourse in recent years and as such we have been debating what our considerations are regarding this new technology. Within the past 50 years a lot has changed and new technologies flood to the forefront of society and we argue and debate their use and consider the pros and cons and eventually some sort of equilibrium has been met, where that metric stands. AI offers the same difficulty and discussion today as cellular phones and personal PCs did in the late 70s and 80s. Humanity is amidst a new change and while AI might have more questionable moral issues for some, others argue the benefits far outweigh those issues. Privacy has become a huge consideration for society as a whole. This is why Small Guy Technologies will take the following stance for AI usage.
- We will strive, to the best of our abilities, to avoid printing any product that was "designed" using AI.
- We will strive, to the best of our abilities, to provide links to the designers' sites/pages so that our customers can see where we source our products and who we source them from.
- We will strive, to the best of our abilities, to avoid posting any AI generated visuals on our site.
- We will strive, to the best of our abilities, to avoid using any AI for any posted text on our site.
- We will strive, to the best of our abilities, when AI is used, to inform our customers of it's use and scale of use.
With this, to be fully transparent, we have used AI assisted searches to research and develop this website so that it functions properly to make it easier for our customers to interact with.
