Is Commercial-use Allowed for Compmanies?

#5
by yacine-indeed-com - opened

The license mentions: "Apple grants you a personal, non-exclusive license".
Does this mean that the models cannot be used by companies/corporations to build products without infringing the license?

yacine-indeed-com changed discussion title from Is Commercial-use Allowed Foe Compmanies? to Is Commercial-use Allowed for Compmanies?

not an expert but... this is a relatively permissive license, allowing users to do quite a lot with the software, including modifying and redistributing it. However, it does require attribution to Apple when redistributing the unmodified software AND not promote it with Apple as a source of origin.

most-likely the purpose is to difference the current state of the weights (and code) to avoid getting sued, they are a company, we should respect they want to protect themselves for whatever use the models get.

i think that a fine-tuned, gguf version of this model should do the trick. i will use it for my app apple, please don't sue me! or at least let me know if im wrong.
