Your parent poster is quite clearly stating that they believe that model weights (ie, the model itself) cannot be copyrighted as it is not a creative work.
If the model weights cannot be copyrighted, you are not violating copyright law by duplicating them in the absence of a license grant, so you gain no benefit in entering into a contract by agreeing to the license.
- lxgr 1y agoThat's what I'm wondering about. I believe contracts under US law need "consideration" for both sides, and I'm not sure publicly available, non-copyrightable weights alone would hold up in court, even if the "licensee" explicitly accepts a license agreement as a contract.
