spiantino commented on OpenAI to buy AI startup from Jony Ive bloomberg.com/news/articl... · Posted by u/minimaxir
Ive will not be joining OpenAI, and they’re also not buying Ive’s design firm LoveFrom.
Kind of both? "While Ive and LoveFrom will remain independent, they will take over design for all of OpenAI, including its software. Altman said his first conversations with Ive weren’t about hardware, but rather about how to improve the interface of ChatGPT."

You can find the terms on our website, ai.google.dev/gemma:
out of curiosity, why is this a "terms" and not a license? I'm used to reading and understanding the software as coming with a license to use it. Do the terms give us license to use this explicitly?

Maybe a dumb question, but why is there a Terms instead of a license? That feels a little flimsier as an open source offering
