Training on all my work so you can generate my work and thus replace me is not fair use. If you think this argument is one salty software engineer yelling at CloudGPT, I'm sure Disney and every other media company feels the same way.

Yeah but if you're buying those headphones you know you need an amp. I do wonder how hard/expensive it would be to offer this as a configuration option though. Like if your favorite set is 300 ohms you could just configure your ph

This kind of implies there's better or worse ordering. AFAIK that's pretty subjective. If the idea was to expose how the DB is ordering things, or even make things easier for autocomplete OK, but this just feels like a "I hav

This was probably true of v2, but v3 doesn't refer to derived works. In OP's scenario they didn't modify the AGPL code, so there's nothing to release.

Ha well, as a lover of spirited conversation I am not at all offended. I'm not telling you you have to use (A)GPL code, I'm just trying to dispel various rumor. I really, truly believe the GPLs have revolutionized our society. It&

Neither the AGPLv3 nor your link reference "derivative works". It's a GPLv2 concept they jettisoned for (A)GPLv3. https://softwarefreedom.org/resources/2014/SFLC-Guide_to_GPL...

I know a lot of this stuff is legally pretty new (though AGPLv3 is almost 17 years old now) and there's not a huge body of case law around it. But--and I'm earnestly asking here--is there case law where courts reach in and modify

I mean, they have a strong incentive to get you to buy a commercial license. I'm not surprised they're uninterested in giving you free legal advice in service of not paying them.
