This provision establishes that W&B's IP indemnification obligation does not extend to outputs generated by AI Features, which means customers using W&B's generative AI functionality bear the risk of third-party IP infringement claims related to AI-generated content.
The updated agreement no longer includes language stating that a previously executed written agreement between Customer and W&B would govern and supersede the master service agreement. This removal eliminates explicit recognition of contractual hierarchy that may have applied to customers with signed agreements predating the master terms. The practical effect depends on whether such customers have separate agreements in place and how contract interpretation and applicable law would treat the relationship between a posted master agreement and a signed customer agreement absent explicit supersession language.
View change record →The updated Terms of Service no longer include the previous statement that services would become inaccessible from certain locations starting September 1st, 2025. This removal means the geographic restriction that was previously announced in the agreement is no longer formally stated in the current terms. Users who were affected by or concerned about the prior restriction should review current documentation to confirm whether any geographic limitations remain in effect.
View change record →Under this clause, W&B's indemnification for intellectual property claims does not cover content generated by AI Features. Customers using W&B's AI functionality should assess their own exposure to third-party IP claims arising from AI-generated outputs, as the agreement places this risk on the Customer.
