3 paragraphs in Risk Factors of the 10-K filed Feb 24, 2026 with nothing like them in the 10-K filed Feb 24, 2025. Quoted exactly. Paragraphs that were only edited are under 10-K change.
Compared with the Risk Factors in the latest 10-K of the other 74 Technology companies: a paragraph with at least half its words the same at another company is called similar, and the companies are listed under it. A paragraph most of them have is marked boilerplate. No line means no other company has one like it. This counts text; it does not say how serious a risk is.
We rely on third-party AI platforms and services, including proprietary and open-source large language models and other AI technologies provided by companies such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Microsoft. These providers may change their terms of service, increase pricing, discontinue services, experience outages, decline to provide certain indemnities, or make changes to their AI models that adversely affect our products or operations. As AI becomes more central to our offerings, our exposure to pricing changes from these providers increases, and we may not be able to pass such cost increases on to our customers. We have limited control over these third-party AI systems and their updates, and any disruption in access to these services could have a significant impact on our business. The use of AI applications may result in cybersecurity incidents that implicate the personal data of end users of such applications. Any such cybersecurity incidents related to our use of AI applications could adversely affect our reputation and results of operations. AI also presents emerging ethical issues, and if our use of AI becomes controversial, we may experience brand, reputational, or competitive harm, or legal liability.

Regulation limiting or controlling the use of AI may restrict our ability to use AI, our ability to create new products, and create increased compliance costs.
We are subject to an evolving landscape of laws and regulations governing the use of AI. The EU AI Act classifies AI systems by risk level and may prohibit certain high-risk applications, requiring significant change to product design, documentation, governance processes, and risk management practices to achieve compliance. In the U.S., several states, including Colorado and California, have enacted or are considering AI-specific regulations addressing transparency, bias, and accountability, particularly in the housing and employment fields. Regulatory uncertainty regarding how these laws will be interpreted and enforced creates additional compliance challenges, and may cause us to modify our data handling and compliance practices, limit our ability to use certain data to support our products or product development efforts, hinder our customers’ ability to adopt or continue to use our products, or require us to cease offering or using certain AI-enabled features or services in particular jurisdictions.
