THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.

AI model outputs are probabilistic and may be inaccurate, incomplete, or inappropriate for specific use cases. You should not rely on model outputs as professional legal, medical, financial, or security advice without independent verification.
