So pretty much the same as the Authors Guild, Inc. v. Google, Inc. case ruling it as fair use as a transformative work. I mean if indexing the worlds books is transformative then a neural net run on them certainly is a transformative work and fair use.

> if you license it MIT, and it's useful, expect Amazon to make a fork, not give you the source code,

thats why the gpl family of license exist.

MIT/BSD family licenses are do whatever you want with this,

if you want to make money off of you pet opensource project I recommend multi-license it with a copyleft with copyright assignment required for contributions and offer other licenses with a fee.

Smallpox, which the only remaining samples exists in a couple of secure facilities controled by superpowers for use making vaccinations in case they are wrong about their only being a few samples controled by superpowers. Everyone with an ounce of sense knows bioweapons infect both sides and nuetral parties who are no longer neutral once you infect them. It like mustard gas but worse no one other than suicidal terror groups want them and they dont have the facilities equipment samples or knowhow.

because bio-weapons labs take more to run than a workstation pc under your desk with a good graphics card. both in equipment material and training. Its hard to outlaw use of linear algebra and matrix multiplications.

sort of not really but effectively yes. their deal with OpenAI gave them unrestricted use of all of OpenAI Models and IP (source code, weights, patents probably any other data) except the eventual hypothetical end products of Artificial General Intelligence which would belong to OpenAI alone but Microsoft would still have everything leading to it so could probably make that jump on their own (not a great deal on OpenAI's part as it doesn't give them much of a moat). so when OpenAI runs out of money well Microsoft won't own the IP but will have unrestricted use of it some one else could buy it at bankruptcy but microsoft could still use it. As for the staff well they already showed a willingness to jump ship to Microsoft back when the OpenAI board tried firing Sam without giving a reason, and if OpenAI dies Microsoft would probably hire any of the top talent that applied. So kinda sort of but on paper no but yeah they would have everything of value they would choose have.
