Limitations of AI-Generated Output.

(a) it may contain errors or misleading information,
(b) AI systems are based on predefined rules and algorithms that lack the ability to think creatively and come up with new ideas and can result in repetitive or formulaic content,
(c) AI systems can struggle with understanding the nuances of language, including slang, idioms, and cultural references, which can result in Output that is out of context or does not make sense,
(d) AI systems do not have emotions and cannot understand or convey emotions in the way humans can, which can result in Output that lacks empathy and emotion that humans are able to convey,
(e) AI systems can perpetuate biases that are present in the data used to train them, which can result in Output that is discriminatory or offensive,
(f) AI systems can struggle with complex tasks that require reasoning, judgment and decision-making,
(g) AI systems require large amount of data to train and generate content, and the data used to train AI systems may be of poor quality or biased, which will negatively impact the accuracy and quality of the generated Output, and
(h) AI-generated Output can lack the personal touch that comes with content created by humans, which can make it seem cold and impersonal.
9. Site Deletion due to Inactivity. If you build a Site on the Platform and fail to publish or edit that Site for six months or longer, Higher Images may, at Higher Images’s discretion, delete such Site with or without notice to you.

If you are a California resident, You waive California Civil Code §1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”
