@pinkdrunkenelephants Well, per my belief as to the meaning of words, ML statistical models are derivative works like any other, and my licenses which place restrictions on derivative works already apply to the ML statistical models

@mcc @pinkdrunkenelephants I agree that ML models trained on a set of data that contains my code would be a derivative work.

Personally I want my open source work to be used as a public good. A derivative work that is proprietary and used for corporate profit is not for the public benefit, and I find that distasteful.

I want to say that I'd feel less spurned if the ML models were open source, but I don't really know if that's true. Generative models are easily weaponized against the public good as well.
