Microsoft releases data use agreements for open data

Microsoft has released three data use agreements for open data, and is asking for public comments/feedback before the end of September 2019:
  • Open Use of Data Agreement (O-UDA)
    • "Designed for use with open datasets which don't include personal data or data owned by a data provider. It is the most open and least restricted of the three first proposals."
  • Computational Use of Data Agreement (C-UDA)
    • "The goal of the C-UDA is to define a use of data sets for AI training purposes that contain third party materials, in a manner consistent with law."
  • Data Use Agreement for Open AI Model Development (DUA-OAI)
    • "The goal of the DUA-OAI is to create a template agreement that parties might use to share data to train an artificial intelligence (AI) model and then to make that trained AI model publicly available through an open source licensing structure."
