Trust
Disclaimers
Provides users with information regarding the limitations or liabilities associated with AI usage
Overview
Disclaimers are informational messages or notices that inform users about the limitations, risks, or liabilities associated with using AI-powered features or services. This pattern aims to manage user expectations and mitigate potential misunderstandings or misconceptions regarding the capabilities and reliability of AI systems.
Disclaimers typically include information about the accuracy of AI-generated content, potential biases or limitations in the data used to train the AI models, and the responsibility of users in interpreting and acting upon AI-generated outputs. These notices may be presented during onboarding, within the application interface, or in user documentation.
By providing Disclaimers, applications promote transparency and trustworthiness in their AI offerings, ensuring that users are informed about the inherent uncertainties and risks involved in AI interactions. This pattern helps establish realistic user expectations and fosters a more responsible and informed user base.
