4. Content
Your Content. You may provide input to the Service (“Input”) and receive output from the Service based on the Input (“Output”). Collectively, Input and Output are “Content.” You own your Content, and you are responsible for your Inputs and Outputs from your use of the Service, including ensuring that they do not violate any applicable law, these Terms, or our Acceptable Use Policy. You represent and warrant that you have and will maintain all rights, licenses, and permissions needed to provide the Input in a manner fully compliant with these Terms and to grant the rights that you grant to us under these Terms. To the extent permitted by applicable law, and as between you and Open Research, you retain your ownership rights to the Input, and you own the Output.
Content of others. Due to the nature of artificial intelligence, outputs may not be unique, and users may receive similar output from our Service. Outputs that are requested by other users and generated for them are not considered your Output or your Content. Third-party Brand Features are also not your Content. "Brand Features" means the trade names, trademarks, service marks, logos, domain names, and other distinctive brand features of a party. Your rights to the Output do not extend to, or supersede, rights of others with respect to outputs generated for other users of the Service, to any third-party content owned or delivered by a third-party service, or to Brand Features owned by Open Research or by any other party.
Our use of your Content. You grant, an irrevocable, perpetual, transferable, sublicensable, royalty-free, and worldwide right to Open Research to use, copy, store, distribute, publish, list information regarding, modify, reproduce, make derivative works of, aggregate, and display your Content: (i) to maintain and provide the Service; (ii) to improve the Service and for our other business purposes, such as data analysis, customer and market research; identifying usage trends; and developing and promoting new products or features; (iii) to enforce these Terms, comply with our Privacy Policy, comply with applicable law, or keep the Service safe; and (iv) to take other actions authorized by you in connection with your use of the Service. These rights include the right to use your Content for model training purposes. Where applicable and permitted under applicable law, you waive and agree not enforce any "moral rights" or equivalent rights you may have with respect to our use of your Content.
Third-party service use of your Content. Certain features of the Service may facilitate your ability to connect to a third-party service, for example a social media platform. If you choose to send your Content to such a third-party service, you are instructing and authorizing Open Research to send your Content out of the Service. Please review the policies of any third-party service providers for additional information about how they may use those materials.
Content Disclaimers. Artificial intelligence is rapidly developing, is probabilistic, is trained with imperfect and imperfectible data sources, and adjusts operations and outputs in response to how users interact with it. When you use our Service, you acknowledge and agree that:
- Output may not be accurate, comprehensive, or complete. It may include “hallucinations” or otherwise not reflect real people, places or facts. You are responsible to conduct your own thorough research and should not rely on Output as the truth.
- Output is not professional advice or a substitute for professional advice and may not be suitable for your intended purpose or use. You are responsible to evaluate Output for accuracy and appropriateness for your use, including using human review and supervision, before using or sharing Output.
- Output may be offensive, objectionable, and not be appropriate or suitable for all ages or maturity levels. We urge parents to exercise care in monitoring the use of the Service by their teenagers.
- Output may include references or links to third-party content or Brand Features. Your use of the Service does not include any right, title or interest in third-party content or Brand Features.
