> restricts military use

I'm sure the powers-that-be will absolutely pay attention to that clause.




You could say the same for the GPL, yet it's wording is enough to curb adoption from corporations.

Large organisations like the military have enough checks and balances to avoid these kind of licences with a 10ft pole.


Yeah, they should! Not that the missile then makes a 180° turn to "return to sender" because it noticed that the target is a Chinese military base.


The code is open sourced


There's no meaningful inspection of LLM code, because the real code is the model weights.


See Sleeper Agents (https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.05566).


Who in their right mind is going to blindly take the code output by a large language model and toss it on a cruise missile? Sleeper agents are trivially circumvented by even a modicum of human oversight.


but what about training data?


The weights and data pipeline are open sourced and described explicitly in the paper they published. The non-reasoning data isn't nearly as interesting as the reasoning data though
