Why Open Source Artificial Intelligence in Legal Tech ?
On August 1, we released Contrax Suite (an open source document analytics platform). It is important to note that we have decided upon dual licensing – (1) open source (AGPL) which is pretty hard core copyleft and (2) a more permissive license in specific circumstances. The key for us is to maintain the opensource ecosystem which requires balancing competing interests. We cannot grant the more permissive license to everyone under all conditions or it undermines the entire effort.
That said, we have a real problems in the A.I. + Law community. Some of the claims are outlandish and the business model (at its core) does not really make sense. We think that opensource helps solve for some (perhaps not all) of the adoption issues.
