Meta may use sweeping new commercial TOS to avoid millions in AI licensing fees

Meta has updated its commercial terms of service (TOS) to potentially avoid paying millions of dollars in licensing fees for using AI technologies. The updated TOS allows Meta to use AI technology without obtaining a license from the company that developed the AI, which some legal experts have called an 'AI power grab'. The change could impact companies that use Meta's platforms, potentially forcing them to obtain separate licenses for their own AI use.
