-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

-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
