[DRAFT — Abbot review pending. Drafted from the Order’s stated policy; Beau owns the final voice.]
The Stoic Order is transparent about how it uses artificial intelligence, because honesty is not optional for an order built on virtue.
Our Words Are Our Own
Every teaching, belief statement, and doctrinal text published by The Stoic Order is original work, authored by a human being. None of our doctrine, teachings, or published content is AI-generated.
How We Do Use AI
We use AI tools the way a careful writer uses a proofreader: as a spelling and grammar check, and as an aid in the practical operations of the Order — maintaining this website, keeping records, and organizing our work. The thinking, the writing, and the convictions are human. The polish is sometimes assisted.
Why We Tell You This
A religious community asks for trust. Trust requires candor. If our practice around these tools ever changes, this statement will change with it — before, not after.
