AI Transparency Statement

Effective Date: 06/12/2025

1. AI System Disclosure

Important Notice: When you use Egoo AI, you are interacting with artificial intelligence systems, not human beings. This disclosure is provided in accordance with UK AI transparency principles and ethical AI guidelines.

2. How Our AI Works

2.1 AI Character System

Our platform uses artificial intelligence to power conversational characters called "Egos." These AI systems:

• Are trained on large datasets of text and conversational data
• Generate responses based on patterns learned during training
• Use your custom character descriptions to influence their personality and responses
• Do not have consciousness, emotions, or genuine understanding
• Cannot learn or remember information between separate conversations

2.2 Response Generation

When you send a message, our AI:

1. Analyzes your input and conversation context
2. Applies the personality traits of your chosen Ego character
3. Generates a response using machine learning algorithms
4. Provides the response through our chat interface

3. AI Capabilities and Limitations

3.1 What Our AI Can Do

• Engage in natural language conversations
• Maintain character consistency within a conversation
• Respond to various topics and questions
• Adapt tone and style based on character personality
• Generate creative content like stories or ideas

3.2 What Our AI Cannot Do

• Provide professional advice: Not qualified for medical, legal, financial, or therapeutic guidance
• Access real-time information: Cannot browse the internet or access current events
• Remember across sessions: Each conversation starts fresh
• Make real-world actions: Cannot control devices, make purchases, or contact others
• Guarantee accuracy: May provide incorrect or misleading information
• Understand context perfectly: May misinterpret complex or nuanced requests

4. AI Training and Data

4.1 Training Data

Our AI models are trained on:

• Large corpora of publicly available text
• Conversational datasets designed for chatbot training
• Curated content to improve safety and appropriateness
• Data that has been filtered to remove personal information where possible

4.2 Bias and Fairness

We acknowledge that AI systems can exhibit biases present in training data. We work to:

• Identify and mitigate harmful biases
• Regularly evaluate AI outputs for fairness
• Implement content filtering and safety measures
• Continuously improve our models based on user feedback

5. Content Generation Transparency

5.1 AI-Generated Content

All responses from Ego characters are AI-generated. This means:

• Content is created by algorithms, not human writers
• Similar responses may be generated for different users
• Content may contain factual errors or inconsistencies
• Creative content is algorithmically generated, not original human creation

5.2 Content Accuracy

We cannot guarantee the accuracy of AI-generated content. Users should:

• Verify important information independently
• Not rely on AI responses for critical decisions
• Understand that AI may "hallucinate" or create plausible-sounding but false information
• Use AI interactions for entertainment and general conversation purposes

6. Privacy and AI Processing

6.1 Data Processing

Your conversations with AI characters are processed to:

• Generate appropriate responses
• Maintain conversation context during your session
• Apply safety and content filtering
• Improve our AI systems (with appropriate privacy protections)

6.2 Data Retention

Conversation data is:

• Stored securely with encryption
• Retained according to our Privacy Policy
• Used only for legitimate business purposes
• Not shared with third parties without consent

7. AI Safety Measures

7.1 Content Filtering

We implement multiple safety measures:

• Automated content filtering for harmful content
• Monitoring for inappropriate AI behavior

• Educational reminders about AI limitations

9. Human Oversight

While our platform is primarily automated, we maintain human oversight through:

• Regular review of AI system performance
• Human moderation of reported content
• Manual review of safety incidents
• Customer support for AI-related issues

10. Future AI Developments

As AI technology evolves, we may:

• Update our AI models with improved capabilities
• Implement new safety and transparency features
• Adjust our AI systems based on regulatory guidance
• Provide additional user controls and customization options

We will keep users informed of significant changes to our AI systems.
