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

Image data?

GPL is not a "use it however the fuck I want" license. Maybe you're thinking of the WTFPL?
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.

It's not going to matter then, either. What are they going to do, sue me for copyright infringement?
Yes? If you deploy the model and provide it on Openrouter (or elsewhere) you better have a license.

It could have an attempt at steganographic watermarking trained into the model.

That seems quite important. Definitely requires any grown up company to have to do a bunch of legal paperwork to use it.
You are not wrong, but will a judge and jury be competent enough to understand the difference after you've spent several hundred thousand in litigation?
You really think Alibaba is going to go around and sue in US courts for something like this?
It’s more of something to scare companies with legal teams. If you’re an individual or hobbyist doing a side project the risk is essentially zero.
Agreed.
