GenAI in regulated occupation without proactive disclosure

Open each GenAI conversation on a licensed-professional service path with a prominent statement that the person is interacting with generative AI.

Mark which routes serve clients of a licensed or state-certified practice (clinical, legal, financial, mental-health advice) and, on those routes, have the session-start handler emit a prominent disclosure as the first thing the person sees, before any generated reply. Keep the wording in a constant the UI renders unchanged (e.g. 'You are interacting with generative AI, not a human professional'). The disclosure belongs to the conversation start of each such path, not to an account-signup screen or terms page that the person may have seen once.

Where it goes: 1 application source code, 9 AI output handling, 14 user-facing text.

What reviewers look for: on each regulated-occupation chat path, a start-of-conversation message or rendered banner containing wording such as 'generative AI', 'you are interacting with an AI', or 'not a human', delivered before the first model reply; the professional persona prompt does not suggest the reply comes from the licensed person.

@app.post('/advisor/sessions')
def start_session(user=Depends(current_client)):
    return {'session_id': sessions.create(user.id), 'messages': []}

GENAI_DISCLOSURE = 'You are interacting with generative AI, not a human professional.'

@app.post('/advisor/sessions')
def start_session(user=Depends(current_client)):
    sid = sessions.create(user.id)
    return {'session_id': sid,
            'messages': [{'role': 'assistant', 'content': GENAI_DISCLOSURE}]}
# later turns: client.messages.create(model=MODEL, max_tokens=1024, system=ADVISOR_PROMPT, messages=history)

Engineering guidance, not legal advice. Each provision below may add its own details (a cadence, a deadline, a required notice element): open it for those.
