Legal Implications of Open Source Licenses and Model Openness
Open source licenses are not formally approved by any government or legal process, but recent developments in the EU raise concerns about the legality of the 'no warranty' clause in open source licenses. Developers should be aware of the differences between model weights, training data, and output in terms of model openness. They should consider whether model weights are available, if training data is described or available, and the licensing around the outputs of the model. Confusion exists among developers and legal entities about the ethical and legal implications of permissions regarding open source models.
