3. AI Disclaimer & Limitation of Liability
The AÏP Chatbot operates using a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system with a knowledge base created and maintained by AÏP Genius. Unlike generic AI tools that rely on publicly available databases, our system is based on proprietary knowledge for enhanced accuracy and jurisdiction-specific reliability. However, while AÏP takes reasonable measures to ensure the correctness and relevance of its guidance, users acknowledge that AI-driven advisory services may have limitations. AÏP Genius shall not be liable for any losses, damages, or legal consequences resulting from reliance on the platform’s output, as we follow a duty of means, not results.
