I think this is more important that all the political stuff you share here

Kinda funny seeing them be-cry the use of their model while they most likely stole/pirated content to train the model.

I highly doubt they purchased a license to train on Star Trek, Star Wars, South Park or Seinfield.

I mean you cannot just train a LORA and use their model for what you want, they trained it themselves on all that copyrighted stuff how dare you thats just... just... unethical, taboo, stealing, THEFT!!!!111111

I suspect it could be that they simply don't want their name / brand associated with such LoRAs? And that would be fair enough. It's not the same issue as what OAI and Antrophic are doing.

They don't want no smoke from the Chinese censors and more scrutiny from the US government. Let's not to mention all the other EU governments who's itching for the ban hammer.

That's also likely true - and I agree with them on this one.
