Thanks for the blog post! Was the content reviewed by someone internally?

Open & Responsible AI licenses ("OpenRAIL") are AI-specific licenses enabling open access, use and distribution of AI artifacts while requiring a responsible use of the latter. OpenRAILs are a necessary tool contributing to ongoing AI community, industry, and policy efforts towards an open and responsible development and use of AI systems. Even though current open licenses bring huge benefits to AI innovation in general, they do not take into account the potential of machine learning models or data as different artifacts to code. OpenRAIL licenses could be for open and responsible ML what current open software licenses are to code and Creative Commons to general content: **a widespread community licensing tool.**

Advances in machine learning and other AI-related areas have flourished these past years partly thanks to the ubiquity of the open source culture in the ICT sector, which has permeated into ML research and development dynamics. Notwithstanding the benefits of openness as a core value for innovation in the field, (not so already) recent events related to the ethical and socio-economic concerns of development and use of machine learning models have spread a clear message: Openness is not enough. Closed systems are not the answer though, as the problem persists under the opacity of firms' private AI development models.

Thanks for taking a look at it Omar! Yes, it was reviewed by Clem/Giada/Irene/Clémentine/Yacine in June, Yacine is currently looking at it again, this afternoon it will be fully reviewed and ready.

ICT means Information and Communications Technologies, I'll write the full name.

Awesome 🥳 . Just a quick thing when you plan to publish it?
I forgot to mention last time that a good practice is to put on the Hugging Face agenda the day you want to publish your blogpost "BLOG + title" event

Edit: Ok I checked the date on the article it's tomorrow 😄 . I add the event to the calendar so that nobody will publish the same day 🤗

😅 no problem it's just I was checking because Alicia wants to publish her blogpost on thursday (the 1st) and I wanted to check that there was no overlap with yours.

BTW it could be cool (in a next post maybe) to add a screenshot of the license selector on the hub (see hf.co/new for instance) and showcase that it lets you select an OpenRAIL license.

Or you could tweet about that @CarlosMFerr

Makes the license choice way more pragmatic/action-driven. cc @osanseviero

Definitely @julien-c ! I also created an issue last week to generate a new license tag in the Model Hub for the new license: bigscience-openrail-m; or bigscience-open-rail-m (I know it´s long, but it's the correct way). Once we have it I will make a Twitter thread and Linkedin post.
