Anthropic, a pioneering artificial intelligence startup led by former OpenAI researchers, has repeatedly committed to safeguarding customer data and copyright rights. These changes emphasize the company’s dedication to ethical AI practices, effective January 2024.
Anthropic’s revised terms of service include its promise not to use client data to train its large language models (LLMs).
This commitment assures customers that their sensitive information remains secret and untouched by the AI development process. Unlike some concerns regarding data privacy in the AI industry, Anthropic protects its clients’ data from being incorporated into AI models.
Additionally, Anthropic acknowledges that commercial customers will fully own any outputs generated through its AI models. This means that the company does not seek to obtain any rights to the content produced by its clients.
The move promotes transparency and empowers users to harness the capabilities of Anthropic’s AI without concerns about intellectual property or ownership disputes.
Anthropic is also committed to assisting its customers in copyright disputes. The company has pledged to protect its clients from copyright violation claims arising from the authorized use of its services or outputs.
This includes a promise to cover the costs of approved settlements or judgments resulting from its AI’s inadvertent infringements. This proactive approach provides customers peace of mind while engaging with Anthropic’s AI solutions.
These updates to Anthropic’s commercial terms of service are designed to enhance customer protection and confidence.
Users of the company’s AI, including those accessing it through the Claude API or Amazon’s generative AI development suite, Bedrock, can expect increased legal safeguards and a streamlined API for improved usability.
