As nearly two dozen jurisdictions now require attorneys to provide disclosure and/or verification statements for documents prepared with assistance from or containing information generated by generative artificial intelligence, it seems fitting to include a specific and conspicuous disclosure and verification statement here: This white paper was prepared with the assistance of generative artificial intelligence. The author used various large language models to organize some parts and subsections; to rephrase some content for brevity; to format citations; to summarize lengthy reports or articles; and to compile research material into accessible folders. The author certifies that all citations have been manually verified to ensure their existence and confirm their propositions as accurate representations.
