What do the licences mean?

Apache 2.0: Allows users to use the software for any purpose, to distribute it, to modify it, and to distribute modified versions of the software under the terms of the license, without concern for royalties.
MIT: Similar to Apache 2.0 but shorter and simpler. Also, in contrast to Apache 2.0, does not require stating any significant changes to the original code.
CC BY-SA-4.0: Allows (i) copying and redistributing the material and (ii) remixing, transforming, and building upon the material for any purpose, even commercially. But if you do the latter, you must distribute your contributions under the same license as the original. (Thus, may not be viable for internal teams.)
OpenRAIL-M v1: Allows royalty-free access and flexible downstream use and sharing of the model and modifications of it, and comes with a set of use restrictions (see Attachment A)
BSD-3-Clause: This version allows unlimited redistribution for any purpose as long as its copyright notices and the license's disclaimers of warranty are maintained.

Disclaimer: The information provided in this repo does not, and is not intended to, constitute legal advice. Maintainers of this repo are not responsible for the actions of third parties who use the models. Please consult an attorney before using models for commercial purposes.
