[$] The FSF considers large language models
The Free Software Foundation's Licensing and Compliance Labconcerns itself with many aspects of software licensing, Krzysztof Siewiczsaid at the beginning of his 2025 GNU ToolsCauldron session. These include supporting projects that are facinglicensing challenges, collecting copyright assignments, and addressing GPLviolations. In this session, though, there was really only one topic thatthe audience wanted to know about: the interaction between free-softwarelicensing and large language models (LLMs).
