I'm guessing, like stable diffusion, it won't be under an open source licence then? (The stable diffusion licence discriminates against fields on endeavour)
- jszymborski 4y agoThe LICENSE file in the linked repo says it's under the Apache license.
- yazzku 4y agoDoes this mean that contributions of data, labelling, etc. remain open? I'm hesitant to spend a single second on these things unless they are truly open.
- grealy 4y agoYes. The intent is definitely to have the data be as open as possible. And Apache v2.0 is currently where it will stay. This project prefers the simplicity of Apache v2.0 and does not care for the RAIL licenses.
- ShamelessC 4y agoYou are confusing LAION with Stability.ai. They share some researchers but the former is a completely transparent and open effort which you are free to join and criticize this very moment. The latter is a VC backed effort which does indeed have some of the issues you mention. Good guess though...
