AtlaAI/Selene-1-Mini-Llama-3.1-8B · ## 🚨 License Conflict

Hi, I'd like to report a License Conflict in AtlaAI/Selene-1-Mini-Llama-3.1-8B. I noticed that this model appears to be fine-tuned from meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct, while being published under the Apache-2.0 license. Given the terms outlined in the LLaMA 3.1 Community License, especially regarding redistribution, attribution, and naming, this combination of licenses could potentially lead to legal or usage misunderstandings.

⚠️ Key violations of LLaMA 3.1 license terms:

Clause 1.b.i – Releasing derivative models must:
  • Include a copy of the original license  
  • Display “Built with Llama”  
  • Use “Llama” at the beginning of the model name  
  
Clause 1.b.iii – Must retain the following notice in the release:
   “Llama 3.1 is licensed under the Llama 3.1 Community License, Copyright © Meta Platforms, Inc. All Rights Reserved.”

🔹Suggestion:

1. It’s a good idea to explicitly include all key clauses of the LLaMA 3.1 Community License, such as:

A copy of the LLaMA 3.1 license in the repository or model card
A visible “Built with LLaMA” label on the model card, documentation, or UI
Using “LLaMA” at the beginning of the model name
A statement clarifying that use of the model must comply with Meta’s Acceptable Use Policy

2. Maybe we can just drop the Apache-2.0 tag and going with the LLaMA 3.1 Community License. This approach may help reduce potential confusion about redistribution rights and downstream usage conditions.

Thanks for your attention!
