Terms of Use

Living Literature is an independent publishing and research platform. The books, essays, research papers, AI demo interactions, indices, and reflective tools available through this platform are provided for personal, educational, and reflective purposes only.

Nothing on this platform - including the books, AI companion interactions, reflective indices (STI, PFI, CCI, BTI, TOI, IPR), or any other content - constitutes psychological assessment, clinical diagnosis, therapeutic advice, or medical guidance of any kind. These materials are intellectual essays and reflective tools designed to support self-inquiry and personal reflection. They are not substitutes for professional psychological, psychiatric, or medical care.

If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, please contact a qualified professional or a crisis service in your country. In the UK: Samaritans 116 123. In the US: 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline (call or text 988).

The Prometheus and Selene demo interactions are AI systems designed to extend reflection on the themes of specific books. They are not therapists, counsellors, or mental health professionals. They do not retain memory of your sessions. They do not know you as an individual. Responses generated are not personalised assessments and should not be treated as such. Use of these tools is entirely at your own discretion and risk.

Research papers linked from this platform are preprints - works made available prior to formal peer review. They represent working findings and ongoing inquiry, not established clinical or psychological fact. They should be read as such.

All content on this platform - including but not limited to text, book covers, series artwork, the names Living Literature, Prometheus, Selene, Smudged Edges of Self-Identity, and the indices STI, PFI, CCI, BTI, TOI, and IPR - is the intellectual property of Rayan B. Vasse / Living Literature. Reproduction, adaptation, or commercial use without written permission is prohibited.

The Living Literature system is the subject of a UK patent application filed November 2025 (ref. LL-PAT-2025).

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Living Literature and its author accept no liability for any loss, harm, or damage arising from use of this platform, its content, or its AI demo interactions.

These terms are governed by the laws of United Kingdom.
