AI Disclosure - ELEVATOR 404 Archive
Effective Date: 2026-06-28 Last Updated: 2026-06-28
1. Purpose
This page explains where, how, and to what extent artificial intelligence (“AI”) systems are involved in the materials visible on ELEVATOR 404 Archive. The site is committed to honest disclosure about the origin and nature of its content.
2. Nature of This Site
ELEVATOR 404 Archive is a non-commercial, archival / artistic project organized as a ground-footage / ARG-style collection. None of the materials on this site represent real-world events, real persons in distress, real emergencies, or verifiable news.
Important: Any emergency information, distress signals, or news-like formats appearing anywhere on this site are fictional and must not be treated as real emergency information.
3. Categories of AI Involvement
The following categories of content on this site are generated, in whole or in part, with the assistance of generative AI systems:
- Hero-cut video segments (video generation models, including open-weight models such as HunyuanVideo and Wan2.1-14B)
- Voice and audio synthesis (text-to-speech and music generation)
- Narrative scripts, descriptive text, and metadata
- Image generation and image-to-image transformations
- Translation and summarization assistance
All such materials are treated as raw output. The operator selects, reviews, and curates them prior to publication; AI outputs are not published automatically.
4. Categories Without Generative AI
The following categories are produced entirely by the operator or by named human contributors, without generative AI used in their final form:
- Editorial commentary and curation decisions
- Legal documents (Privacy Policy, Terms of Service)
- Site architecture and taxonomy
5. Synthetic Likeness and Voice
This site does not generate the likeness, voice, or biographical details of any identifiable living real person without that person’s consent. Where the appearance of a fictional character resembles a real person by coincidence, this is unintentional and will be addressed upon notification (see Section 8).
6. Platform-Level Disclosure
Where this site distributes content on third-party platforms (for example YouTube, podcast directories, or social platforms), the operator additionally uses the AI-content disclosure settings provided by that platform - including YouTube’s “altered or synthetic content” label - whenever those settings apply to a given upload.
7. Commercial Use
The site does not sell, license for commercial reuse, or offer AI-generation services to the public. All content is offered for personal, non-commercial viewing.
8. Reporting Concerns
If you believe material on this site is misleading, mislabeled, or raises a rights concern, please contact the operator:
- Email: elevator404archive@proton.me
- Subject line suggestion: “AI Disclosure Concern”
Concerns regarding real-person impersonation are reviewed with priority.
9. Updates
This disclosure may be revised to reflect changes in tooling, applicable regulation, or platform requirements. Material changes will be reflected by updating the Last Updated date at the top of this page.
10. Governing Context
This disclosure is provided in the spirit of:
- U.S. FTC Act - Section 5 (truthful representation of products and services)
- California SB-1001 (Bots: disclosure), insofar as automated conversational agents may interact with visitors
- The platform-specific AI labeling policies used by distributors this site relies on (notably YouTube’s altered / synthetic content policy)
- General principles of factual honesty and consumer protection
This page is not legal advice and creates no contractual obligation beyond what is stated in the site Terms of Service.
