Cohere’s new translation model is open weights — but not for commercial use
Cohere has released a new translation model, characterized by its open weights. This means the model's underlying components are available for inspection and use. However, a significant condition of its release is a clear prohibition on commercial use, as stated in the title. This licensing constraint prevents the model from being deployed in business-oriented applications or services, directing its utility towards academic, personal, or other non-commercial endeavors.
// why it matters
The non-commercial license for Cohere's new translation model restricts its use for developers building commercial applications.
