       | That's... quite a license term. I'm a big fan of tools that come
       | with no restrictions on their use in their licenses. I think I'll
       | stick with them.

         | Good luck with that! Most of the relevant model providers
         | include similar terms (Grok, OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistal,
         | basically everyone with the exception of some open model
         | providers).

         | For years it was a license violation to use Microsoft
         | development tools to build a word processor or spreadsheet. It

         | benchmark results comparing Oracle to other databases.

         | If you compete with a vendor, or give aid and comfort to their
         | competitors, do not expect the vendor to play nice with you, or
         | even keep you on as a customer.

           | 
           | Certainly a mindset befitting microsoft and Oracle, if I ever
           | saw one.

         | Well, Open AI had been whining about DeepSeek back in the day,
         | so it is fair in a way.
