| It's not going to matter unless you plan to commercially deploy the model, as far as I see. If you were to generate outputs for commercial use, I think it would still violate this research license, but it's not like they are going to know, are they? That said, I am disappointed that the model is not actually open-weights as I expected based on the headline. |

| It's not going to matter unless you plan to commercially deploy the model, as far as I see. It's not going to matter then, either. What are they going to do, sue me for copyright infringement? |

| ▲ | bdonlan 2 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | It’s not entirely clear far part of a model would be copyrightable in the first place - it’s the result of a mechanical process, where the inputs are someone else’s copyrighted works, after all, while copyright requires some form of creative input. | |
| ▲ | CamperBob2 6 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | No need to deploy it publicly. It's 7B, it'll run on a 3090. | | |
| ▲ | KeplerBoy 6 hours ago | parent [-] | | You talked about commercially deploying it. Of course nobody cares what you are doing on your own hardware for fun. | | |
| ▲ | CamperBob2 6 hours ago | parent [-] | | Usually the way the licenses are interpreted, if I run it myself and use it to generate $X million in revenue in my own business, I'm subject to the license. In this case, the license seems to cover any commercial usage at all, which would certainly include self-hosting for internal business purposes. Why even bother demanding such terms? Release the weights or don't release the weights, but this is silly. No one is going to pay them to run or host a 7B static image model. | | |

| It could have an attempt at steganographic watermarking trained into the model. |

| That seems quite important. Definitely requires any grown up company to have to do a bunch of legal paperwork to use it. |
