A new study analyzing 232,270 dataset-to-model-to-application chains has revealed significant issues with license propagation in AI supply chains. The research found that 62.3% of these chains involve artifacts with no declared license, often originating from foundational datasets. Furthermore, the study observed that license categories with obligations have a very low survival rate (below 7%) throughout the chain, while 'Permissive' licenses achieve a 95.1% survival rate, indicating a trend of license laundering.
