+# Use of AI
+
+We used ChatGPT 4.1 to support the preparation of this work. Specifically, it helped us move text from Google Docs into Quarto, create the .bib reference file, and obtain feedback on an earlier draft. We also used it for formatting the Quarto book, for example to generate the style.css file that sets the background colour and font. This list reflects the AI uses documented so far and may not be exhaustive.
