The trained model is a derivative work that contains copies of the corpus used for training embedded in the model. If any of the training code was GPL the output is now covered by GPL. The music industry has already done most of the heavy lifting here in terms of scope and nature of derived works, and while IANAL I would not suggest that it looks good for anyone using this tool if GPL code was in the training set.
