AI Disclosure
Effective date: August 2, 2026
This page describes, in general terms, how artificial intelligence is used in the production of sofidex content and in features we offer. It is a description of practice and intention, not a warranty, and it may change as the product does.
1. How sofidex content is produced
Content on sofidex is produced with the assistance of artificial intelligence, including large language models. This applies broadly across the site.
Our editorial process is intended to work as follows, and we describe it as an intention rather than a guarantee:
- AI tools are used for drafting and editing. Editorial decisions about scope, emphasis, and publication rest with sofidex.
- Material is reviewed before publication. Review depth varies with the subject matter, and no representation is made that any particular article received any particular level of review.
- Where a source is identified on a page, it is identified for the reader's convenience. Not every statement carries a citation, and the presence or absence of one is not a representation about verification.
- AI is not credited as an author.
The Editorial Policy describes how corrections and updates are handled.
Some material is reproduced rather than drafted. Medicine pages reproduce FDA-approved patient labelling in the manufacturer's words, and those pages say so.
2. AI features in the product
sofidex may offer, or may introduce, features that use artificial intelligence — including conversational features, generated summaries, suggested content, and similar functionality. Availability varies over time and by area of the site.
Where such features exist:
- **Outputs are automatically generated and may be inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date.** They are not reviewed by a person before you see them.
- They do not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and must not be relied upon for clinical decisions. See the Medical Disclaimer.
- Do not enter protected health information, personally identifying details about a patient, or confidential information.
- Inputs may be transmitted to third-party AI providers for processing. We do not authorise those providers to use your inputs to train their models, and we require contractual terms to that effect where reasonably available.
Search and lookup tools that query our own database or public reference data are not generative.
3. If this changes
If sofidex introduces a user-facing AI feature, this page will be updated before that feature is made available, and it will state what the feature does, what data it receives, how long that data is kept, whether any human reviews outputs, and whether the data is used for model improvement. Material changes will be notified as required by law.
4. Limitations that always apply
- AI outputs are generated predictions, not verified facts, and may be false, incomplete, biased, or supported by citations that do not exist.
- A qualified human must independently verify every material clinical fact before use.
- AI output must never be the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment, dosing, triage, or prescribing.
- AI features must not be used in an emergency, connected to an autonomous clinical workflow, or given protected health information.
