GitHub - non-ai-licenses/non-ai-licenses: This repository contains software licenses that restrict software from being used in AI training datasets or AI technologies.

Even if these licenses cannot be considered as open source and libre (according to OSI and FSF definitions, the only ones which matter), several licenses prohibiting use of source code to train AI are listed in this repository. Nice initiative.

Its literally not open source, you said it yourself. They are all incompatible.
- Just wanted to share for the common knowledge and the debate as I already saw here some “post open source” and content about rubbish licenses like SSPL or BSL 😉
  
  Alright. Heres an idea I had: Perhaps if in some of the court cases they find chatgpt and others guilty of copyright infringment, then free software licenses like the gpl would forbid nonfree AI automatically, as that would then be a license violation?
Where is that user.... and is their license on the list?
- They're busy reposting a chain letter on Facebook that claims to exempt them from an upcoming T&Cs change
And nice comment spotted there: https://fosstodon.org/@geraldew/113849843708286036
Aren't copyleft licenses already anti AI?
- Not sure of that, maybe we need some case law or update on existing copyleft licenses. Source code generated with GenAI tool, even if their model have been trained with corpora of copyleft sources, are not (yet) considered as derivative works. What a pitty.
