Software in general has disclaimed any warranties or fitness for purpose for as long as I can remember. This is nothing new.

[naikrovek]

show me any that have claimed that they were for entertainment purposes only. sql server has never had that in its EULA. The GPL does not say that the software is for entertainment purposes only.

Prohibiting the user from using it for any commercial or business purposes is definitely new!

[klez]

Have you really never seen any software saying "for non-commercial use only"?

[flawi]

When I'm paying for said software? No, I don't think I have.

The Home/Personal edition of Mathematica is for non-commercial use only although it's a paid subscription. The world around you is not bound by your ignorance.

[wat10000]

Does Wolfram advertise that edition of Mathematica as being "for work" like MS does the individual Copilot plan?

[wat10000]

Only when it's a free/cheap consumer version of something with a pricey business version.

[zombot]

No, it's not.

Will be interesting to see if those still hold any weight (in the US at least) after the latest Meta rulings established defective design as a valid reason to sue big tech for damages

[dylan604]

That's not not set yet though. It hasn't made it to appeals yet.

> Software in general has disclaimed any warranties or fitness for purpose

This is not such a disclaimer. If Copilot fails its purpose of entertaining you, you can sue. /i

[phyzome]

That's not what this is, though.

[jrecyclebin]

Well, except that, in this case, Copilot really is for entertainment purposes only.
