Quantum-Si Inc

Our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows are subject to various risks and uncertainties including the risk factors described under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the SEC on March 3, 2025 and the risk factor described below:

Our use of artificial intelligence and machine learning is subject to evolving laws and regulations and risks associated with unauthorized use, and may not result in the competitive advantages desired, all of which could expose us to competitive risk and legal liability.

We use artificial intelligence, machine learning and automated decision-making technologies (“AI”) to assist in the performance, efficiency, and speed of various functions at the Company, including, but not limited to, general and administrative activities and research and development.

The regulatory framework for AI is rapidly evolving as many federal, state and foreign government bodies and agencies have introduced or are currently considering additional laws and regulations for areas including but not limited to consumer protection and transparency, bias and discrimination, intellectual property, employment and use in regulated healthcare devices. Additionally, existing laws and regulations may be interpreted in ways that would affect the operation of AI at the Company. As a result, implementation standards and enforcement practices are likely to remain uncertain for the foreseeable future, and we cannot yet determine the impact future laws, regulations, standards, or market perception of their requirements may have on our business and may not always be able to anticipate how to respond to these laws or regulations. Further, the unauthorized use of AI tools can result in the exposure of sensitive data, including our intellectual property or trade secrets or the personal information of our employees, customers, or other business partners to unauthorized persons or to the public.

There can be no assurance that we will realize the desired or anticipated benefits from AI, or any at all. Our use of AI could result in additional compliance costs, regulatory investigations and actions, and lawsuits; and If as a result, we are unable to use AI, it could make our business less efficient, result in competitive disadvantages, and our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.
