17.1 AI Transparency and Disclosure

In accordance with the EU AI Act and transparency best practices, we disclose the following about our AI systems:

• AI-Powered Features: Our Services use AI for insights generation, recommendations, playbooks, scenario modeling, risk assessments, performance predictions, natural language processing, and automated suggestions
• AI Classification: Our AI features are designed as decision-support tools and are not intended for high-risk applications as defined under the EU AI Act

IMPORTANT: UNDERSTANDING AI LIMITATIONS. Large language models and AI systems have inherent limitations that you must understand:

• Hallucinations: AI systems, particularly LLMs, may generate content that appears plausible but is factually incorrect, fabricated, or nonsensical ("hallucinations")

• Context Limitations: AI may misinterpret context, nuance, or industry-specific terminology
• Inconsistency: AI outputs may vary for similar inputs and may not be reproducible
• No Understanding: AI systems process patterns in data but do not truly "understand" your business, industry, or specific circumstances
