All articles on this blog originate from my mind.
Most articles are written by me, but some are partially or entirely AI/LLMs‑generated.
Those articles will be tagged accordingly:
- No tag for completely original content
partially-ai-generatedfor articles with one or many AI-generated sentences or with some feedback provided by AIfully-ai-generatedwhen all the content is AI-generated

ai-feedbackfor articles that were edited following AI feedback
I tag the articles with the LLMs that were involved.
Look for tags starting with llm=.
I use a variety of LLM providers (in order of frequency of use):
