> while Llama's license says it can only be used for research purpose

Minor nitpick, but we still don't have a clear legal answer on whether this would be binding to people who didn't sign that agreement, because we still don't have a clear legal answer on whether model weights are covered by copryight.

That being said, it is good for projects to point out that there's uncertainty over whether Llama can be used commercially; so I agree with the overall point.

It’s further unclear whether a fine tuned model which has different weights counts as a copyright violation at all. Doesn’t stop a wealthy company from suing though.
