blink model weights: non-commercial research licence

These weights are a modification of Qwen/Qwen3.5-4B (Apache License 2.0, Copyright 2026 Alibaba Cloud; the full licence text is in LICENSE-Qwen). The modification (fine-tuning with LoRA adapters merged into the weights, and a uniform average of three such fine-tuned checkpoints) was made by thegovind.

The fine-tuning data included third-party datasets released under different terms, among them non-commercial (CC BY-NC 3.0 / 4.0) and share-alike (CC BY-SA 3.0 / 4.0) licences, and sources that state no licence (listed in README.md). Whether and how those terms apply to trained weights is unsettled.

The author of the modification permits you to use, copy and run it for non-commercial research and evaluation only, provided this notice and LICENSE-Qwen are kept with every copy. No licence for commercial use is granted, and nothing here grants rights in any third-party data. You remain responsible for complying with the Apache License 2.0 for the Qwen base weights and with the terms of the upstream datasets.

THE WEIGHTS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
