I've never signed up for the X developer program, so I'm not bound by these terms. But I did download an archive of my data last week. Do I have implicit permission to use that data (~150k liked tweets) to train AI models?
Or is there stuff in the user agreement that separately prohibits this?
Obviously barring normal copyright law which is still up in the air.

- josefritzishere 1y agoThat is partly true, there are carve outs for public spaces. But what they can do with that image is still governed by the GDPR in the EU.
