These models have been explicitly nerfed since their first release due to copyright considerations. I've mentioned in two previous cases both for [1] code generation and [2] book summarizing.

From my point of view, it is sad that these sort of socio-political constructs (copyright) are hindering innovation. The funny thing is that in say, 10 years, the "pirate" version of LLMs will be way more powerful and useful than the "corporate" versions. Once the RIAA/MPAA has sued all of them preventing them of using their audio/video; after the editorials have sued them to prevent them from using their books and articles, and after every internet site has sued them to prevent them from using their text. LLM models trained on SciHub, Library Genesis and Torrents will be amazing in comparison.

I sincerely wish that some country would apply to information copyright a similar approach to what India does for medicine patents.
