Copyright (c) 2023 Stability AI CreativeML Open RAIL++-M License dated July 26, 2023 | |
Section I: PREAMBLE Multimodal generative models are being widely adopted and used, and | |
have the potential to transform the way artists, among other individuals, conceive and | |
benefit from AI or ML technologies as a tool for content creation. Notwithstanding the | |
current and potential benefits that these artifacts can bring to society at large, there | |
are also concerns about potential misuses of them, either due to their technical | |
limitations or ethical considerations. In short, this license strives for both the open | |
and responsible downstream use of the accompanying model. When it comes to the open | |
character, we took inspiration from open source permissive licenses regarding the grant | |
of IP rights. Referring to the downstream responsible use, we added use-based | |
restrictions not permitting the use of the model in very specific scenarios, in order | |
for the licensor to be able to enforce the license in case potential misuses of the | |
Model may occur. At the same time, we strive to promote open and responsible research on | |
generative models for art and content generation. Even though downstream derivative | |
versions of the model could be released under different licensing terms, the latter will | |
always have to include - at minimum - the same use-based restrictions as the ones in the | |
original license (this license). We believe in the intersection between open and | |
responsible AI development; thus, this agreement aims to strike a balance between both | |
in order to enable responsible open-science in the field of AI. This CreativeML Open | |
RAIL++-M License governs the use of the model (and its derivatives) and is informed by | |
the model card associated with the model. NOW THEREFORE, You and Licensor agree as | |
follows: Definitions "License" means the terms and conditions for use, reproduction, and | |
Distribution as defined in this document. "Data" means a collection of information | |
and/or content extracted from the dataset used with the Model, including to train, | |
pretrain, or otherwise evaluate the Model. The Data is not licensed under this License. | |
"Output" means the results of operating a Model as embodied in informational content | |
resulting therefrom. "Model" means any accompanying machine-learning based assemblies | |
(including checkpoints), consisting of learnt weights, parameters (including optimizer | |
states), corresponding to the model architecture as embodied in the Complementary | |
Material, that have been trained or tuned, in whole or in part on the Data, using the | |
Complementary Material. "Derivatives of the Model" means all modifications to the Model, | |
works based on the Model, or any other model which is created or initialized by transfer | |
of patterns of the weights, parameters, activations or output of the Model, to the other | |
model, in order to cause the other model to perform similarly to the Model, including - | |
but not limited to - distillation methods entailing the use of intermediate data | |
representations or methods based on the generation of synthetic data by the Model for | |
training the other model. "Complementary Material" means the accompanying source code | |
and scripts used to define, run, load, benchmark or evaluate the Model, and used to | |
prepare data for training or evaluation, if any. This includes any accompanying | |
documentation, tutorials, examples, etc, if any. "Distribution" means any transmission, | |
reproduction, publication or other sharing of the Model or Derivatives of the Model to a | |
third party, including providing the Model as a hosted service made available by | |
electronic or other remote means - e.g. API-based or web access. "Licensor" means the | |
copyright owner or entity authorized by the copyright owner that is granting the | |
License, including the persons or entities that may have rights in the Model and/or | |
distributing the Model. "You" (or "Your") means an individual or Legal Entity exercising | |
permissions granted by this License and/or making use of the Model for whichever purpose | |
and in any field of use, including usage of the Model in an end-use application - e.g. | |
chatbot, translator, image generator. "Third Parties" means individuals or legal | |
entities that are not under common control with Licensor or You. "Contribution" means | |
any work of authorship, including the original version of the Model and any | |
modifications or additions to that Model or Derivatives of the Model thereof, that is | |
intentionally submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Model by the copyright owner or | |
by an individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of the copyright owner. | |
For the purposes of this definition, "submitted" means any form of electronic, verbal, | |
or written communication sent to the Licensor or its representatives, including but not | |
limited to communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems, and | |
issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, the Licensor for the | |
purpose of discussing and improving the Model, but excluding communication that is | |
conspicuously marked or otherwise designated in writing by the copyright owner as "Not a | |
Contribution." "Contributor" means Licensor and any individual or Legal Entity on behalf | |
of whom a Contribution has been received by Licensor and subsequently incorporated | |
within the Model. | |
Section II: INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS Both copyright and patent grants apply to the | |
Model, Derivatives of the Model and Complementary Material. The Model and Derivatives of | |
the Model are subject to additional terms as described in | |
Section III. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this | |
License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, | |
no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare, publicly | |
display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the Complementary Material, the | |
Model, and Derivatives of the Model. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and | |
conditions of this License and where and as applicable, each Contributor hereby grants | |
to You a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable | |
(except as stated in this paragraph) patent license to make, have made, use, offer to | |
sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Model and the Complementary Material, | |
where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable by such Contributor | |
that are necessarily infringed by their Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their | |
Contribution(s) with the Model to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You | |
institute patent litigation against any entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim | |
in a lawsuit) alleging that the Model and/or Complementary Material or a Contribution | |
incorporated within the Model and/or Complementary Material constitutes direct or | |
contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses granted to You under this | |
License for the Model and/or Work shall terminate as of the date such litigation is | |
asserted or filed. Section III: CONDITIONS OF USAGE, DISTRIBUTION AND REDISTRIBUTION | |
