The amended act, voted out of committee on Thursday, would sanction American open-source developers and software distributors, such as GitHub, if unlicensed generative models became available in Europe. While the act includes open source exceptions for traditional machine learning models, it expressly forbids safe-harbor provisions for open source generative systems.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Helvetica; letter-spacing: 1.1px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><br></span></div><div><font face="Helvetica"><span style="letter-spacing: 1.1px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">…>></span></font></div><br><br></body></html>
