## TL;DR

Disclosure builds trust; a short honest line costs nothing and prevents accusations later.
Templates remove the friction of deciding what to say each time.
Applies to forum posts, articles, docs, and social posts with AI assistance.

## The query

```text
disclosure templates for AI-assisted content
```

## Use this when

- You publish AI-assisted content.
- You want short honest disclosure lines ready to use.
- Disclosure is a trust choice, not a legal requirement here.

## Not for

- The content is fully human-written (no disclosure needed).
- You are in a regulated industry with specific disclosure rules (follow those, not a template).
- The venue bans AI-assisted content entirely (do not post it there).

## Steps

1. Pick the template tier: a one-line note for light assistance, a fuller note for heavy generation.
   Expected output: Two templates covering the common cases.
2. Place the disclosure where readers see it: end of a post, footer of a doc.
   Expected output: Disclosure in a consistent, visible spot.
3. Keep the wording factual, not defensive: what the AI did, what the human did.
   Expected output: A tone that reads as transparency, not apology.
4. Apply it consistently, including on posts that performed well.
   Expected output: A track record of honest disclosure across your content.
