I don't recall any prior computer software working so badly that it needed a disclaimer like "Claude is AI and can make mistakes" on its front page. Let alone one so costly.
You must not use any open source software, because much of it comes with a whole paragraph of ”IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHORS OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES OR OTHER LIABILITY“
That would be fine if Claude was open source and/or unpaid
If you read the fine print of most commercial software you'll see some language to a similar effect. When's the last time Microsoft got sued due to an outage caused by a bug in Windows?

This sentence only exists to offset law (or case law) have gave damage rights to anyone.
Every piece of software comes with giant disclaimers like this.
You’ve just been clicking past them.
This really isn’t new.
