We use artificial intelligence when building the website, writing the help content, and,to a significantly lesser extent, for authoring blog posts.
Artificial Intelligence and its usefulness are evolving so quickly that this page may not always be fully up to date, but it should be a reasonable representation.
This page was last updated in November of 2026.
Code
This is the place where AI is used most. There is little excuse to program without AI assistance and spend time keeping coding skills up to date (which is not a small part of the motivation for the work put into this site). Almost all of the new code starting in about November of 2025 has been AI-generated. There is still significant human oversight and direction, including human code review.
Catalog
On the opposite end of the spectrum. The core music4dance catalog is not generated by AI. Some aspects, such as tempo, are generated by an algorithm, and since that is external code, it is likely a machine learning algorithm at this time. But the actual entries in the catalog and the dances associated with them come from either human interaction or from lists that, to the best of our knowledge, humans assembled.
Help Pages
The help pages built before mid-2026 were built without AI (most of them, as of this writing). However, new pages will be AI-generated with human editing, as that is the least creative form of writing and has historically lagged behind the features. Getting the AI that is writing the features to draft the help documentation is a substantial win.
We’ll add a note at the bottom of new help pages to let folks know when they are “AI-drafted.”
Blog Posts
All blog posts before October of 2026 were fully human-written. As we use more AI overall, we’ll start marking posts as “AI-drafted” when AI writes the first draft (this will likely be most common for feature announcement posts, for similar reasons as the help pages). For posts that are human-drafted but where AI was used to research and fill out the post, we’ll mark them as “AI-assisted.” If there is no AI notice, assume the post was written and edited by a human with minimal AI support.
Grammar Checking
For completeness, it should be noted that we’ve been using a grammar checker for all text since long before the LLM breakthrough. The same software that we used a decade ago is now driven by AI, and we have no intention of writing without a good grammar checker, so all new text content has been affected in some way by AI, and we’re not going to the trouble to point that out for every page.
