Cohere mandates AI disclosure for public-facing interactive applications, ensuring end users are not deceived about the nature of the system they are engaging with.
Interpretive note: The excerpt is item (1) of a numbered list under a conditional requirement. Additional obligations for public-facing AI applications likely follow in unquoted portions of the clause.
The updated policy removes all substantive acceptable use requirements that were previously posted and enforceable. Users no longer have a referenced standard defining what conduct is prohibited on the platform. The removal of enforcement procedures means users cannot verify what conduct may trigger access restriction, suspension, or termination. The elimination of the child safety and sexually explicit content prohibitions from the posted policy creates uncertainty about whether these protections remain in effect through other terms or have been abandoned.
