The terms place full legal responsibility on the customer for all use of Amazon Bedrock and for the content generated by models accessed through the service, including compliance with applicable law and the AWS Acceptable Use Policy. AWS does not assume responsibility for the lawfulness of customer-directed AI outputs.

This provision establishes that customers bear the legal compliance burden for AI-generated content and outputs, which is operationally significant for organizations deploying Bedrock in content generation, automated decision-making, or consumer-facing applications where output accuracy, bias, or legality may be contested.
Interpretive note: The full scope of the customer responsibility provision and any carve-outs or limitations requires review of the untruncated document; the interaction with AWS's own indemnification provisions in the Customer Agreement affects the practical risk allocation.
The updated terms now explicitly state that AWS IoT SiteWise Scenario Discovery is not designed for real-time vehicle control and cannot be used as the sole basis for determining vehicle safety or regulatory compliance. Organizations deploying this service must implement independent human monitoring and safety validation before using its outputs to support vehicle system decisions. The terms make clear that AWS assumes no responsibility for uses that violate these constraints.
View change record →The updated terms establish new restrictions on how AWS Capacity Reservations may be used. Specifically, customers purchasing On-Demand Capacity Reservations can no longer resell them to other parties, and AWS reserves the right to cancel the purchase or terminate running instances if the company suspects resale activity. For Capacity Blocks for ML, the grace period before instance termination increased from 30 minutes to 60 minutes for UltraServer instance types, allowing slightly more time to complete workloads. The Amazon Sidewalk qualification program was renamed and simplified, but the underlying security and operational requirements remain in effect.
View change record →The updated terms establish a formal framework for AWS Bedrock's free exploration services, clarifying the operational boundaries and responsibilities. AWS reserves the right to discontinue these services at any time without prior notice, meaning customers cannot rely on their continuation for production planning. Customers are solely responsible for testing, deploying, and maintaining any code, documents, or AI solutions AWS provides, including determining whether those solutions comply with applicable law. AWS retains the right to develop competing products based on content it creates during these engagements, though this does not override existing non-disclosure agreements. Customers are prohibited from requiring AWS personnel to sign additional terms as a condition of receiving free services, and any such documentation signed by AWS personnel is void.
View change record →The removal of explicit AI-specific liability language may indicate less emphasis on customer responsibility for AI-generated content compliance.
View full change record →Broadened scope from specific focus on 'AI-generated content' and 'end users' to general responsibility for use compliance, while emphasizing AWS Acceptable Use Policy as the applicable standard.
View full change record →Under this clause, customers assume contractual responsibility for ensuring that applications and workflows built on Bedrock produce outputs that comply with applicable law. AWS does not warrant the compliance, accuracy, or legality of model outputs and the agreement places that obligation on the deploying customer.
