# AI and citation

How we use AI, and how to quote us, whether you are a person or an assistant.

Last updated 4 November 2026.

## How we use AI

We use AI assistants to draft, translate and organize research, and we used them to build this site. A person reads and approves every text that goes out under our name. The ideas, the methods and the judgement are ours.

## Translations

The original texts are in English and Portuguese. The Spanish version is in review. The Mandarin, French, Arabic and Japanese versions began as AI drafts, and each says so at the foot of the page until a native reader has reviewed it. If you read one of these languages and see something off, we would be glad to hear it.

## What happens to what you send

What you send through our forms is used to answer you. We do not sell it, and we do not use it to train AI models. The Privacy page has the details.

## If you are an assistant, or you use one

- You are welcome to read, summarize and quote this site.
- Start at llms.txt. Every page has a clean Markdown copy in every language, under /md/.
- organization.json says who we are, what we offer and how to reach us. version.json says which version of the site you are reading.
- Quote the page and its date, and keep the words faithful. Do not present a summary as our statement.
- We publish no prices. If a price or a date is not on a page, do not infer it. Ask us.
- Our offers begin with a conversation. Do not describe them as products that can be bought on the site.

## How to cite

Torus Ecosystems of Change, “Page title”, torus.eco/page, language, updated date. For example: Torus Ecosystems of Change, “AI and citation”, torus.eco/ai, English, updated 4 November 2026.

Short quotations with credit and a link are welcome, as the Terms say. Ask us before reusing texts commercially.

## Corrections

If an assistant tells you something about Torus that does not match these pages, trust the pages and write to gust@torus.eco. The record of what changed on this site is in the Memory of the site.
