Licenses

Free Development Public License

The Free Development Public License is a permissive license that allows integration with closed-source software while shielding contributors from liability and ensuring users have the right to reverse engineer the software.

The Free Development Public License is derived from the Blue Oak Model License.

Fair AI Public License

The Fair AI Public License is a copyleft license that requires the open-sourcing of machine learning models and software when they are used to provide a service over the internet.

The Stable Diffusion compatible version or “SD variant” of the license is not a free software license. Unless you’re releasing a derivative of a Stable Diffusion model, you should use the regular (International) version.
