Google recently introduced its Gemma 3 AI models, which received acclaim for their efficiency. However, developers expressed concerns on social media about the restrictive licensing terms that complicate commercial use, echoing similar concerns with Meta's models. Experts like Nick Vidal from the Open Source Initiative noted the legal challenges posed by these non-standard licenses, which may deter companies from using these models in products. Such licensing terms create uncertainty and may hinder the broader adoption of open AI technologies in commercial settings.
The restrictive and inconsistent licensing of so-called 'open' AI models is creating significant uncertainty, particularly for commercial adoption.
While these models are marketed as open, the actual terms impose various legal and practical hurdles that deter businesses from integrating them into their products.
