Effective current policy given courts think eula are contracts
ever, them writing bullshit "we can train our ai" in their EULA,
all gnu v mit copyrights being unclear on ai.
If the courts rule that mit or gnu do not grant fair use to train
ai, mircosoft wins by default in the ai race... according to them
(they are just wrong, githubs ai is the worse thing in existence
and the Chinese ai's dont need to obey american courts)
