MIT license is: Do whatever you want with this. You can even branch proprietary software are you are not forced to contribute back neither to me nor to the community. Just keep my name in the source code. GPL license is: You may use this software for anything you like, but I'm forcing you to keep any derived work under the same kind of freedom. You may make profit by using or selling this software (or derivates), but if you give a binary to anyone, you must offer them the source code too.
