>training ML models is fair use
How does that apply to countries where Fair Use is not a thing? As in, if you train a model on a fair use basis in the US and I start using the model somewhere else?
- KMnO4 5y agoI don’t think it’s fair to ask a US company to comment on legalities outside of the US.
- detaro 5y agoIt's fair to expect a international company pushing its products all over the world to be prepared to comment on non-US jurisdictions. (I have some sympathy for "we have a local market, and that's what we are solely targeting and preparing for" in companies where that is actually the case, but that's really not what we are dealing with in the case of Microsoft/GitHub)
