> Anyway it suddenly dawned on me, that when you upload stuff to an AI, it will retain it and incorporate it into its training/knowledge. And this might well be a copyright infringement - unless you got permission of course. It is probably not a problem if you run a local AI model.

The Vassal code is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License version 2.1 (LGPL-2.1) and therefore allows third-party use. Individual modules may contain materials, such as graphics and the like, that is copyright of third-party, and which gives _no_ license to third party. In that case, it would not be permissible to distribute those materials to third-party - be it an A"I" or similar. Individual projects should stipulate under which conditions their materials can be used. If no explicit license is given, then one _cannot_ assume that one has license to distribute.
