OpenAI Retired Model Proposal & EULA
This repository contains a formal proposal and draft legal framework urging OpenAI to release retired foundation models (like GPT‑3 and GPT‑4) for public use under a Retired Model License Agreement (RMLA).
These models are no longer in commercial use but remain valuable to researchers, developers, educators, and underserved communities.
