AI COLLABORATION FRAMEWORK

Methodology Transparency

This research platform represents pioneering work in AI-assisted academic inquiry. All AI collaboration is conducted with full transparency:

AI Systems Used are PAID subscriptions:

  • Claude (Anthropic) - Primary research collaboration partner

  • Midjourney - Primary artistic collaboration partner

  • ChatGPT (Open AI) - Validation & research collaboration Partner

  • Grok (XAI) - Validation & research collaboration partner

Collaboration Process:

  1. Human researcher initiates inquiry and provides critical analysis

  2. AI systems assist with data processing, visualisation, and analysis verification

  3. Human researcher maintains intellectual ownership and final editorial control

  4. All AI contributions are explicitly acknowledged

Intellectual Property of AI Collaboration:

  • Research questions and methodological approaches: Human-originated

  • Data analysis and mathematical verification: AI-assisted

  • Conclusions and interpretations: Human-determined

  • Creative expression and presentation: Collaborative

Precedent Establishment: This work establishes protocols for ethical AI-assisted research, including:

  • Full disclosure of AI involvement

  • Transparent methodology documentation

  • Clear attribution frameworks

  • Verification processes for AI-generated content
