I like the about fairly well, I do think the former disclaimer, that is now at the bottom, is in fact redundant. It's also just a wall of text right now, let's see if I can find some images

And that will do it for the publish

Here's a draft for the AI transparency section on your blog's "About" page:

How I Use AI in My Creative Process

AI has become a valuable tool in helping me bring my creative ideas to life, especially when it comes to visual design and web development. For artwork, I often use MidJourney to generate background images, which I then refine further in Photoshop and enhance with graphic design elements in Illustrator. For example, in my series of travel posters, while the background might start with an AI-generated image, all the additional design work is done by me. I don’t consider myself an artist, but AI has given me a way to express myself and realize ideas that I might not have been able to achieve otherwise.

When it comes to writing about myself—like this section or the author bio in my posts—AI, specifically ChatGPT, helps me craft the text. I then go through it, making sure it accurately reflects my voice. I’m a little self-conscious about writing personal details, so this process helps me feel more comfortable sharing.

For programming and development tasks on the blog, I also rely on ChatGPT. It’s great for taking care of repetitive boilerplate tasks, which lets me focus more on solving higher-level design and functionality problems.

However, I want to emphasize that all my blog posts are 100% written by me. I value being genuine and real in what I share. Sometimes I use ChatGPT as a starting point for research, but I always verify its information, and my posts are based on primary sources that I review myself. On occasion, I might ask ChatGPT to help with minor edits to make sure things flow well or to catch grammatical issues—but only to avoid asking my wife to proofread everything! As you’ll see, my posts still aren’t always error-free, and that’s something I’m continually working on.

Does this feel like it captures the tone and details you're aiming for?

Yes, could you also add that any images included in blog posts are generated by Midjourney unless otherwise specified?

What if we split the disclaimer and the about on separate pages, maybe instead of cluttering the main menue we put th elink the footer
