Open-source figure-skill creator objects to others selling commercial figures from his free MIT-licensed work

The creator of the open-source figure skill said he's uncomfortable seeing people sell figures made with it. Though the MIT license makes that legal, he released it free so students, teachers and parents could use it without paying — "just because you can sell it doesn't mean that's what it was made for." Others in the AI community echoed his view.
