Open source AI systems

Additional Information

3.1 Organisations that develop AI systems are normally entitled to commercialise such systems as they wish. However, governments should at a minimum advocate accessibility through open source or other similar licensing arrangements to those innovative AI systems which may be of particular societal benefit or advance the “state of the art” in the field via, for example, targeted incentive schemes. 3.2 Organisations that elect not to release their AI systems as open source software are encouraged nevertheless to license the System on a commercial basis. 3.3 To the extent that an AI system can be subdivided into various constituent parts with general utility and application in other AI usecases, organisations that elect not to license the AI system as a whole (whether on an open source or commercial basis) are encouraged to license as many of such re-usable components as is possible.
