There's an elephant in the room, or is it just me?

Is your script making users violate the original license agreement(§)?

For the record, i don't think Meta will go after you or anyone else. But they may decide not to make their future models available after what is happening with the Llama weights.

I realize that some people are of the opinion that AI models (weights) cannot be copyrighted at all.

Yes, you are right, every project that distributes LLaMA right now is violating Meta's agreement.

I've got a weird, probably untrue conspiracy theory about this.

Hugging face releases stable diffusion. It goes viral and vastly outpaces the competition in the blink of an eye. Then they get sued.

Meta sees both of these things go down. Meta needs a leg up on chat GPT, but worries about legal repercussions similar to stable diffusion.

Whoops, it leaked! Hey, we didn't say those dastardly devs could use it.

I think that ship has probably sailed, in that no one is going to release weights in this way again. Either they will publish them outright (like Whisper) or they will keep them (almost) completely closed.
