What the filing says about AI
6 sentences in the filing name AI. The filing names AI six times, as risks: competitors adopting AI faster, generative AI compromising confidential information, and its own possible use of AI in operations and programming.
- “These competitors may be able to spend more aggressively on advertising and promotional activities, introduce competing products more quickly, adopt new technology, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, more quickly and successfully and respond more effectively to changing business and economic conditions than we can.”
- “Further, the use of generative artificial intelligence tools may compromise confidential or sensitive information, put our intellectual property at risk, or subject us to claims of intellectual property infringement, all of which could damage our reputation.”
- “We may use artificial intelligence in our business, which could result in reputational harm, competitive harm, and legal liability, and adversely affect our operations. 16 We may leverage artificial intelligence, including generative artificial intelligence and machine learning, in our operations and software programming.”
- “Our competitors or other third parties may incorporate artificial intelligence into their operational processes more quickly or more successfully than us, which could have a material adverse effect on our competitive position, reputation and operations.”
- “In addition, there are significant risks involved in developing and deploying artificial intelligence and there can be no assurance that the usage of artificial intelligence will be beneficial to our business, including our efficiency or profitability.”
