- Copyright (c) 2023 Stability AI CreativeML Open RAIL++-M License dated July 26, 2023

-
3
- Section I: PREAMBLE Multimodal generative models are being widely adopted and used, and
4
- have the potential to transform the way artists, among other individuals, conceive and
5
- benefit from AI or ML technologies as a tool for content creation. Notwithstanding the
6
- current and potential benefits that these artifacts can bring to society at large, there
7
- are also concerns about potential misuses of them, either due to their technical
8
- limitations or ethical considerations. In short, this license strives for both the open
9
- and responsible downstream use of the accompanying model. When it comes to the open
10
- character, we took inspiration from open source permissive licenses regarding the grant
11
- of IP rights. Referring to the downstream responsible use, we added use-based
12
- restrictions not permitting the use of the model in very specific scenarios, in order
13
- for the licensor to be able to enforce the license in case potential misuses of the
14
- Model may occur. At the same time, we strive to promote open and responsible research on
15
- generative models for art and content generation. Even though downstream derivative
16
- versions of the model could be released under different licensing terms, the latter will
17
- always have to include - at minimum - the same use-based restrictions as the ones in the
18
- original license (this license). We believe in the intersection between open and
19
- responsible AI development; thus, this agreement aims to strike a balance between both
20
- in order to enable responsible open-science in the field of AI. This CreativeML Open
21
- RAIL++-M License governs the use of the model (and its derivatives) and is informed by
22
- the model card associated with the model. NOW THEREFORE, You and Licensor agree as
23
- follows: Definitions "License" means the terms and conditions for use, reproduction, and
24
- Distribution as defined in this document. "Data" means a collection of information
25
- and/or content extracted from the dataset used with the Model, including to train,
26
- pretrain, or otherwise evaluate the Model. The Data is not licensed under this License.
27
- "Output" means the results of operating a Model as embodied in informational content
28
- resulting therefrom. "Model" means any accompanying machine-learning based assemblies
29
- (including checkpoints), consisting of learnt weights, parameters (including optimizer
30
- states), corresponding to the model architecture as embodied in the Complementary
31
- Material, that have been trained or tuned, in whole or in part on the Data, using the
32
- Complementary Material. "Derivatives of the Model" means all modifications to the Model,
33
- works based on the Model, or any other model which is created or initialized by transfer
34
- of patterns of the weights, parameters, activations or output of the Model, to the other
35
- model, in order to cause the other model to perform similarly to the Model, including -
36
- but not limited to - distillation methods entailing the use of intermediate data
37
- representations or methods based on the generation of synthetic data by the Model for
38
- training the other model. "Complementary Material" means the accompanying source code
39
- and scripts used to define, run, load, benchmark or evaluate the Model, and used to
40
- prepare data for training or evaluation, if any. This includes any accompanying
41
- documentation, tutorials, examples, etc, if any. "Distribution" means any transmission,
42
- reproduction, publication or other sharing of the Model or Derivatives of the Model to a
43
- third party, including providing the Model as a hosted service made available by
44
- electronic or other remote means - e.g. API-based or web access. "Licensor" means the
45
- copyright owner or entity authorized by the copyright owner that is granting the
46
- License, including the persons or entities that may have rights in the Model and/or
47
- distributing the Model. "You" (or "Your") means an individual or Legal Entity exercising
48
- permissions granted by this License and/or making use of the Model for whichever purpose
49
- and in any field of use, including usage of the Model in an end-use application - e.g.
50
- chatbot, translator, image generator. "Third Parties" means individuals or legal
51
- entities that are not under common control with Licensor or You. "Contribution" means
52
- any work of authorship, including the original version of the Model and any
53
