Acknowledgement of AI Assistance

Throughout our journey with FeLV and Chiana’s treatment, I’ve turned to many sources of information, research, and support. One of the most surprising and helpful tools I’ve used has been Artificial Intelligence (AI).

This AI has helped me:

  • Understand complex medical research in simpler terms
  • Explore different treatment options, including antiretrovirals
  • Clarify confusing or conflicting information online
  • Write and edit blog posts like this one

I still do my own research, speak directly with professionals, and make every decision with Chiana’s care and well-being as the top priority. But using AI has made the information more accessible and manageable for me, especially when navigating the often overwhelming and isolating world of FeLV.

AI does not replace veterinary advice, lived experience, or trusted medical guidance. Like any tool, it has limitations. It can be outdated, make errors, or miss context that a vet or experienced caregiver would catch. I always cross-reference important information and consult directly with professionals when making decisions.

That said, AI has supported me in becoming a more informed and confident advocate for Chiana.
