+# Human Content Statement
+
+We pride ourselves in our documentation being written *and* translated by humans,
+not by Large Language Models (LLMs), other Artificial Intelligence (AI), or 
+machine translators (such as Google Translate or DeepL).
+
+AI writing is often lacking in quality, critical thought, and understanding of
+the work being referenced. Machine translated text is often incorrect in context
+or translation, and is not fit for official or large scale texts.
+
+Contributors to our documentation should under no circumstance use AI or machine
+translation to write or translate documentation. Those found to be using AI or
+machine translation will be removed as contributors to the documentation, and any 
+current or future pending changes could be considered void.
+
+We encourage you to support human writing and translations, only with such will
+you and others grow.
