Non-commercial (NC) clauses are non-free as they are not free software according to the FSF, open source according to the OSI, or free culture according to Freedom Defined. I would recommend using CC-BY-SA-4.0, CC-BY-4.0, or CC-0-1.0 instead which are free culture Creative Commons licenses.

The code is now available under the MIT license :)

Could you confirm that the pretrained model weights are also covered under the MIT license? Thank you!

Software licenses depend on copyright. Can a model checkpoint even be under copyright? This YouTube video argues that they cannot fall under copyright.
