This is a fascinating shift in platform power dynamics. Instead of unilateral AI scraping, we're seeing the a forced data reciprocity

Some open source devs may want LLMs to learn their code - it could help users get support.

But this reciprocity clause might have a chilling effect

Practical example: Google trains Gemini on GitHub code (everyone does - it's the world's largest code repo).

Under the new terms, GitHub could now access Google's public data - like YouTube videos - for their own AI training

GitHub (owned by Microsoft) just added an "Access Reciprocity" clause to their Terms of Service.

If you're a tech giant (700M+ monthly users) training AI on GitHub's code, GitHub now gets to use YOUR public data too.

Here's what that means 🧵
