AI can help ZVM Labs structure ideas, edit text, and find gaps faster. But AI is not the decision-maker, does not replace fact checking, and is not responsible for published material.
This policy explains how AI may be used on the blog and which boundaries remain fixed.
Short Version
- Final responsibility for materials remains with the author.
- Technical claims, legal references, security conclusions, and recommendations should be checked.
- Confidential data, secrets, tokens, third-party personal data, and NDA-covered materials must not be submitted to AI without a lawful basis and permission.
- If AI materially affects the method, structure, or conclusion of a material, that should be disclosed in the text.
- AI is not used for hidden reader manipulation, discriminatory profiling, or automated decisions about people.
Regulatory and Professional References
ZVM Labs uses these documents as references for responsible AI practice:
- Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, EU Artificial Intelligence Act - the EU legal framework for AI systems.
- European Commission AI Act overview - an explanation of the EU risk-based approach.
- NIST AI Risk Management Framework - a voluntary approach to AI risk management.
- OECD AI Principles - principles for responsible, trustworthy, and human-centred AI.

Where AI May Help
AI may be used for:
- drafts, outlines, and structure;
- simplifying complex explanations;
- translation or adaptation between Ukrainian and English;
- finding gaps in reasoning;
- preparing checklists;
- editing tone, clarity, and readability;
- technical documentation support, when the result is checked.
What AI Should Not Do
AI should not:
- invent sources, facts, test results, or certifications;
- create a misleading impression of legal, financial, or professional advice;
- replace manual verification of commands, code, security conclusions, or legal references;
- process sensitive or confidential data without permission;
- generate instructions for harm, unauthorized access, data theft, or bypassing protections;
- secretly influence advertising or partner materials.
Verification Before Publication
Before publishing AI-assisted material, check:
- whether sources are real and relevant;
- whether the text contains exaggeration or false confidence;
- whether facts, assumptions, and conclusions are separated;
- whether secrets, personal data, or confidential fragments leaked into the text;
- whether the scope and limits are clear;
- whether an AI disclosure is needed for the reader.
AI Disclosure
Disclosure is needed if AI materially affected:
- the research method;
- structure or conclusions;
- translation that may change meaning;
- examples, tables, diagrams, or policies;
- risk analysis or decisions.

Data and Confidentiality
Do not submit the following to AI:
- passwords, private keys, API tokens, or session cookies;
- identity documents;
- third-party personal data without a lawful basis;
- internal employer materials;
- NDA-covered materials;
- vulnerabilities in real systems before an agreed responsible disclosure process.
