3.3 Safety-Critical, and Life-Saving Applications; Indemnity. The Materials may provide information relevant to safety-critical applications (“Safety-Critical Applications”) to allow compliance with functional safety standards or requirements. You acknowledge and agree that safety is Your responsibility. To the extent You use the Materials to create, or as part of, products used in Safety-Critical Applications, it is Your responsibility to design, manage, and ensure that there are system-level safeguards to anticipate, monitor, and control system failures, and You agree that You are solely responsible for all applicable regulatory standards and safety-related requirements concerning Your use of the Materials in Safety Critical Applications. 

 

Should You use the Materials for Safety-Critical Applications or in any type of a system or application in which the failure of the Materials could create a situation where personal injury or death may occur (e.g., medical systems, life-sustaining or life-saving systems) (“Life-Saving Applications”), You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold Intel and its representatives harmless against any claims or lawsuits, costs, damages, and expenses, including reasonable attorney fees, arising in any way out of Your use of the Materials in Safety-Critical Applications or Life-Saving Applications and claims of product liability, personal injury or death associated with those applications; even if such claims allege that Intel was negligent or strictly liable regarding the design or manufacture of the Materials or its failure to warn regarding the Materials.

B. AI Features in the Materials. Some Materials may include or implement components, features, or functionality of AI technologies (“AI Features”). You can find more information about included AI Features in documentation accompanying the Materials. While Intel strives to ensure the quality, accuracy, and reliability of included AI Features, due to the nature of AI, such features and their output may contain inaccuracies, biases, and omissions. You are solely responsible for determining the fitness of the AI Features and their output for Your use cases, and for evaluating the accuracy and completeness of the output. Intel makes no warranty or representation as to the completeness, accuracy, or reliability of the AI Features, their output, or their suitability for any purpose.

C. Using the Materials to Develop Your AI Applications. You may not use the Materials to develop an AI application (“Your AI Application”) if the documentation accompanying the Materials prohibits such use. You can only use the Materials to develop Your AI Application in the absence of such prohibition and in accordance with standard industry practice and all applicable laws and regulations, and Your AI Application must not violate, or contribute to, the violation of an internationally recognized human right.

D. GAI and AI Features in Third Party Software Some Third Party Software may have been developed using GAI or may include or implement components, features, or functionality of AI Features. Intel does not take any responsibility for Third Party Software, how it may have been developed using GAI or any AI Features therein.  You can find more information about Third Party Software use of GAI and AI Features in the documentation accompanying the Third Party Software.
