Data driven algorithms are very very useful as moral crumple zones. I don't like this trend of companies replacing traditional decision making with "AI"; the anti-discrimination laws we have are going to be toothless if peopl

Almost. The author can license their contributions with a more permissive license if they want (e.g. individual files can be MIT licensed) but the software as a whole must be licensed under the GPL. I guess it boils down to whether the LICE
