The updated terms establish a new GenAI Features category available through the Service and specify the operational and liability framework governing their use. GenAI Features are provided on an 'as is, as available' basis with no warranties regarding accuracy, reliability, or fitness for any purpose. Under the revised terms, users assume sole responsibility for evaluating and verifying any outputs generated by GenAI Features before taking action based on them. Where chatbot functionality is included, the terms specify that chatbot responses are informational only, may be inaccurate or incomplete, and users must not submit personal data to chatbots. RapidAPI disclaims all liability for losses arising from reliance on GenAI or chatbot outputs.
