3. Compliance with Guidelines: Users are requested to adhere to the website’s guidelines and acceptable usage policies when interacting with AI language models. Content generated should not violate any copyright, trademark, intellectual property rights, or any applicable laws.
4. User Responsibility: Users are responsible for their interactions with AI language models and should not misuse them for malicious purposes, spamming, or any harmful activities.
5. Non-Discrimination: The AI language models are designed to be impartial and treat all users equally, without any form of discrimination based on race, gender, religion, or any other characteristic.

By accessing and using the AI language models on the Black Book :projects website, users agree to comply with the guidelines mentioned above. Black Book :projects reserves the right to modify or discontinue the use of AI language models at any time without notice.
