I've found a very interesting paper in AI/ML (😱😱 type of papers), but I was not able to find the accompanying code or any implementation. After nearly a month I checked the paper again and found a link to a GitHub repo containing the implementation code (turned out they updated the paper). I was thinking of using this paper in one of my side projects, but the code is licensed under "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License". The question is to what extent this license is applicable? Anyone here has experience in this? thanks

    Sounds like you can use it, with attribution to the authors, in non-commercial applications.

    @milkyway maybe try contacting the authors and request a dedicated license?
    Typically, most research stuff is released under CC and similar licenses, but nothing stops the author(s) from granting additional licenses to individual users/companies (or even releasing their code under additional licenses)

    @endor if I use it in the backend and make some modifications on the algorithm what will happen since the only visible parts of it is inside the app ( feature ), so who can ask me here. And the app will be for selected audience at first. I know this sound unprofessional, but only wondering about it.

    @milkyway you'd be in violation of the license.

    @milkyway yes you can use it.
    No you can't shove it in a commercial product.
    It's pretty self explanatory really.

    The paper itself can't be used commercially. The thing they researched can. And as for the code, it is probably not licensed under CC. Probably MIT or GPL.

    Edit: I'm obviously not a lawyer. This is just how I perceive it.
