Be prepared, be careful, be wary 🤖👇:
In the next months,
you are likely to see Generative AI Terms of Service popping up everywhere.
If you use Generative AI tools
of any kind, either in a personal or professional context, make sure to read each of these Terms very carefully.
Here's an example
from Square's Generative AI Terms:
Firstly 👩🏾⚖️:
YOU are legally responsible for the content you generate, not the AI Products. No matter what content is generated.
"You are responsible for all content associated with your use of AI Products."
This section details how you, the user, are fully responsible and liable for any misleading, deceptive, or incorrect information generated by the AI Products. You could not get away blaming the company for it. You must verify all information generated.
Secondly 🔒:
YOU are responsible for ensuring that everything you input into the AI Products does not contain any sensitive personal data:
"including data that reveals racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership, health data or data concerning your sex life or sexual orientation"
Thirdly ⚠️:
YOU are responsible for informing viewers the material was AI-generated, to verify its accuracy, and you grant an irrevocable license to the company for any content you generate:
"You grant us and our subsidiaries, affiliates, and successors a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully-paid, transferable, irrevocable, perpetual, and sub-licensable right to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, prepare derivative works of, distribute, publicly perform, and publicly display your AI Content throughout the world in any media, whether presently known or unknown, for any reason, including to provide, promote, and/or incorporate into the AI Products."
Finally ©:
YOU are responsible for ensuring no copyright are violated. Make doubly sure you do not input any material (including text and image) you do not own the copyright of.
YOU are also responsible for complying with every applicable privacy laws.
Copyright lawsuits and privacy violation fines are very costly:
"You may not use AI Products to create content that violates third-party copyright, trademark, privacy or other rights. This may include, but is not limited to, entering text prompts to generate a third-party brand logo, uploading an Input image that includes a third party’s copyrighted content, or using a third party’s personal information in violation of their privacy or data protection rights."
And remember, publicly available is not the same as public domain. It is entirely different in regard to copyright laws.
Be careful, be wary when using generative AI features 🚨🤖
