I do have works that contains use of non-human assistance (by tools such as generative models 'LLM's) (listed below); I'll state this very clearly from now on in an effort to stay transparent about that in my work.
Semantics

| "Content" | Noun. Resources; raw material from a given source. |
| "Non-human" | Adj. Of not human origin, as in, not created, emitted from or crafted by a human. Example: Synthesis is a human creation. Sound in a synthesizer is actively decided by human manipulation, even if the actual sound is not actually emitted from a human. |

Statements only applies to a single medium unless the statement is None for both. For example, one cannot apply a single statement for a release, because a release is often a compound of a track (audio) and image (cover art) which can have different statements. This is disambiguated by the "Medium" column.
