6.3 Third-Party Trademarks and Nominative Fair Use

GPT-4 is a trademark of OpenAI. Claude is a trademark of Anthropic.
Gemini is a trademark of Google. Mistral and Cohere are trademarks of their respective owners.

Seekrates AI is an independent platform and is not affiliated with,
endorsed by, or sponsored by any AI provider. We use these trademark
names and provider logos solely for the purpose of identifying the
specific AI models/services being queried and compared—a use recognized as Nominative Fair Use under trademark law.

Consensus scores, champion designations, and quality ratings displayed
by Seekrates AI are proprietary metrics and do not reflect official
performance ratings from the respective AI providers.

7. ACCURACY AND RELIABILITY DISCLAIMER

7.1 No Guarantee of Accuracy
AI-generated content may contain errors, biases, or “hallucinations.” Users are responsible for:
– Verifying accuracy of information
– Fact-checking critical information
– Not relying solely on AI output for important decisions

7.2 Consensus Limitations
While our multi-agent approach reduces single-point failures, it does not guarantee accuracy. Consensus among AI models does not equal truth. Consensus scores represent the degree of semantic agreement among AI
providers on a given query. These scores are calculated using proprietary
algorithms and should not be interpreted as measures of factual accuracy.
High consensus indicates agreement among models, not verification of truth.

8. MEDICAL AND PROFESSIONAL ADVICE DISCLAIMER

8.1 Not Medical Advice
**CRITICAL: Seekrates AI is NOT a medical service and does NOT provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.**

The Service and its AI-generated responses:
– Are for informational and educational purposes only
– Do not constitute medical, health, or therapeutic advice
– Are not a substitute for professional medical consultation
– Should never be used for emergency medical situations
– Cannot diagnose medical conditions or recommend treatments
– May contain dangerous misinformation if applied to medical scenarios

8.2 No Doctor-Patient Relationship
Use of the Service does not create a doctor-patient, therapist-client, or any other professional healthcare relationship. AI responses are generated by language models that:
– Have no medical training, certification, or clinical experience
– Cannot examine patients or review medical records properly
– May provide inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or harmful health information
– Are not subject to HIPAA or medical confidentiality requirements
– Cannot assess individual medical histories or contraindications

– New Zealand: 111
– United States: 911
– United Kingdom: 999 or 111
– Australia: 000

– Interpreting symptoms, test results, or diagnoses
– Pursuing any treatment, therapy, or medical intervention
– Ignoring or delaying professional medical advice you have received
– Self-diagnosing any medical condition

**Failure to seek professional medical care can result in serious injury or death. Seekrates AI accepts no responsibility for medical decisions made based on AI-generated content.**

8.5 AI Model Limitations in Healthcare
AI language models are fundamentally unsuited for medical decision-making because they:
– **”Hallucinate” medical information** – generate plausible but completely false medical data, drug interactions, dosages, or treatment protocols
– **Lack access to your personal medical history** – cannot account for allergies, pre-existing conditions, current medications, or individual risk factors
– **Provide outdated information** – may reference superseded medical practices or withdrawn treatments
– **Cannot interpret nuance** – miss critical warning signs that trained medical professionals would immediately recognize
– **Have no accountability** – cannot be held to medical malpractice standards or professional ethics codes

8.6 Legal and Professional Services Disclaimer
Similarly, the Service does NOT provide:
– **Legal advice or representation** – Not a substitute for licensed attorneys
– **Financial planning or investment advice** – Not a substitute for certified financial advisors
– **Accounting or tax preparation services** – Not a substitute for CPAs or tax professionals
– **Engineering certifications or safety assessments** – Not a substitute for licensed engineers
– **Any other licensed professional services** requiring regulatory oversight

**AI-generated advice cannot replace domain expertise, professional judgment, or regulatory compliance. Always consult licensed professionals for matters requiring specialized expertise or legal compliance.**

8.7 User Acknowledgment and Assumption of Risk
By using the Service, you explicitly acknowledge and agree that:
– You understand AI cannot replace medical or professional advice
– You will not use AI output as a basis for medical, legal, or financial decisions without professional consultation
