+## Purpose
+This license gives everyone as much permission to work with this software as

+
+## Definitions
+In this license, "model" refers to machine learning model weights, biases,
+parameters, optimizer states, and any byproducts of a training or pretraining
+process, whether in the form of checkpoints or any other form.
+
+The term "derived model" refers to any model based on this model.
+
+The term "software" also refers to any model along with documentation or
+other resources provided with the software.
+
+The term "source code" refers to the preferred form of making modifications
+to software. It also includes any models, if applicable, but it does not
+include any datasets used to train a model.
+
+To "modify" also means to perform any training on a model or to combine a
+model with another model.
+

+interact with a derived model, then you may choose to provide a download link
+or written offer only for the derived model.

+This software, all source code, and all modifications must be provided under
+this license or another license that allows everything this license allows.
