Terms of Service

Artificially Opposed
Last updated: September 24, 2026

1. Agreement

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Artificially Opposed podcast, YouTube channel, and website at www.artificiallyopposed.com (together, the "Services"). The Services are operated by Artificially Opposed ("we," "us," "our").

By using the Services you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy at www.artificiallyopposed.com/privacy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Services. If you are under 18, you may use the Services only with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian. If you use the Services for an organization, you confirm you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

3. What the Services are

Artificially Opposed produces commentary, debate, interviews, and discussion about artificial intelligence and related topics. Some content is produced or assisted by AI tools, and some episodes feature AI-generated voices, text, or images. We label synthetic or altered content where platform rules require it.

4. Not professional advice

Everything in the Services is for general information and entertainment. Nothing in the Services is legal, financial, tax, investment, insurance, medical, or other professional advice. Opinions belong to the individual speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views of Artificially Opposed or its affiliates. Talk to a qualified professional before acting on anything you hear or read in the Services.

5. Our content and your license to use it

All episodes, videos, audio, artwork, logos, names, text, and other material in the Services are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws.

We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to watch, listen to, and share links to our content for non-commercial purposes. Short quotes and clips for commentary, criticism, or news reporting are fine when you credit Artificially Opposed and link to the original.

Without our written permission, you may not:

• Re-upload, re-broadcast, or redistribute full episodes or substantial portions of them.
• Use our content, names, or logos in advertising, or in a way that suggests we endorse you.
• Use our content to train, fine-tune, or evaluate AI models, or scrape the Services with automated tools.
• Remove or alter any copyright, trademark, or attribution notice.

6. Your submissions

If you send us questions, comments, guest pitches, feedback, voice messages, or other material ("Submissions"), you confirm you have the right to send it. You grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable license to use, reproduce, edit, publish, and distribute your Submissions in any media, including reading or playing them on air, with or without attribution. We are not obligated to use or respond to any Submission, and we do not accept unsolicited ideas under any expectation of confidentiality or payment.

Do not send us anything confidential or anything you want to keep private.

7. Guests

Guest appearances are governed by a separate release or agreement where one is signed. If no separate agreement exists, a guest who participates in a recording grants us the rights described in Section 6 for that recording, including the right to use the guest's name, likeness, voice, and biographical information in the episode and in promotion of it.

8. Community rules

When you comment, message, or otherwise participate, you agree not to:

• Harass, threaten, or impersonate anyone.
• Post unlawful, hateful, sexually explicit, or infringing material.
• Post spam, scams, or malware.
• Share other people's private information.
• Interfere with the operation or security of the Services.

We may remove content and block users at our discretion, without notice. Report spam, scams, or abuse to nospam@pretzinger.com. Comments on YouTube and other platforms are also governed by those platforms' rules.

9. Third-party platforms and links

Our content is distributed through third-party platforms including YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify. Your use of those platforms is governed by their terms, including the YouTube Terms of Service at https://www.youtube.com/t/terms. We are not responsible for third-party platforms, websites, products, or services, including those mentioned by guests or linked from the Services.

10. Sponsors and affiliate links

Some content may include sponsorships, paid placements, or affiliate links that pay us a commission. We disclose these where required by law and platform policy. A sponsorship is not an endorsement by any guest unless the guest says so.

11. Copyright complaints

If you believe material in the Services infringes your copyright, send a notice to terms@pretzinger.com. Include:

• Your contact information and signature.
• The work you claim is infringed.
• The location of the material you want removed.
• A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized.
• A statement, under penalty of perjury, that your notice is accurate and you are the owner or authorized to act for the owner.

For content hosted on YouTube, you can also use YouTube's copyright tools.

12. Disclaimers

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not promise that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any statement made in them is complete or current. AI-generated content can be wrong.

13. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, ARTIFICIALLY OPPOSED AND ITS OWNERS, AFFILIATES, HOSTS, GUESTS, AND CONTRACTORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM RELATED TO THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US $100). Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limits, so some of these may not apply to you.

14. Indemnity

You agree to defend and indemnify Artificially Opposed and its owners, affiliates, and contractors against claims, losses, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from your Submissions, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of anyone else's rights.

15. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Before filing any claim, you agree to email terms@pretzinger.com a description of the dispute and give us 30 days to try to resolve it informally. Any claim that is not resolved informally must be brought only in the state or federal courts located in Pima County, Arizona, and you consent to their jurisdiction. You and we each waive the right to bring or join any class or representative action related to the Services, to the extent the law allows.

16. Changes

We may update these Terms. When we do, we will change the "Last updated" date at the top. If a change is material, we will give notice on the website before it takes effect. Continuing to use the Services after changes take effect means you accept them.

17. General

If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. These Terms and our Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us about the Services.
