The paper proposes (on p32) that the following four paragraphs (pp 35-36) be added to the standard MIT license (which begins with "Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files..."). > The terms “person” and “individual” are defined as a natural person, as the term is defined by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (PTO), and/or 35 U.S.C. § 100, as amended. The term “Artificial Intelligence Model” means any non-human generative machine learning system or computer program, algorithm, or functional prediction engine supported by cloudbased/computing platforms. The term “Source Code” means the preferred form of a program for making, creating, and modifying software source code, documentation source, and configuration files. > No use, modification, combination, study, collection, share, reproduction, distribution, and/or access of Software may be made under this License, by any non-human generative Artificial Intelligence Model without the express written consent of the inventor, which may be withheld or delayed for any reason. Any appropriation, adoption, disclosure, reproduction, use, and/or access of the licensed Software by any non-human Generative Artificial Intelligence Model shall immediately terminate all rights granted to the Licensee. The Licensor shall have the right, at any time, to withdraw consent by written notice, thereby terminating with immediate effect all use of Software made under this License unless otherwise specified. This License is the controlling instrument and supersedes all prior and conflicting Terms of Service, Privacy Statements, and/or Terms for Additional Products and Features of source repositories where this License may be distributed by the owner of the License. > By accessing and using this data, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these terms and conditions. If you do not agree to these terms and conditions, you may not access or use this data. You may not use this data for the training or inference of Generative artificial intelligence models without the prior permission of the copyright holder. (“Generative artificial intelligence models” are used to create new content or data that is similar to the original data, but not identical. Examples of Generative artificial intelligence models include but are not limited to, text generation models, image and video generation models, and music generation models. The restrictions on Generative artificial intelligence models apply to any use of this data, whether the generative artificial intelligence is trained on this data or uses this data for inference.) > Any attempt by other artificial intelligence models to access or use this data without such permission shall be deemed a violation of this license and a breach of copyright laws. The copyright holder reserves the right to pursue all legal remedies available, including but not limited to injunctive relief and damages, against any party that violates this license. |
