I'm willing to bet a nonzero amount of its training material is GPL, so I'll treat it as GPL licensed instead and use it however the fuck I want.
It's not going to matter unless you plan to commercially deploy the model, as far as I see.
If you were to generate outputs for commercial use, I think it would still violate this research license, but it's not like they are going to know, are they?
That said, I am disappointed that the model is not actually open-weights as I expected based on the headline.

Unfortunately, it looks like this model is using a much more restrictive license:

If AI labs get to ignore licenses, so do we.
