If distilled models were commercially banned they'd probably be willing to show the thinking again.

Intellectual property rights in models? But then wouldn't the model maker have to pay for all the training IP?

(just kidding, I know that the legal rule for IP disputes is "party with more money wins")

[asobalife]

how does one actually enforce that? I mean especially for code? You can always just clean room it

[lejalv]

How do you think such a ban should work?

Do you not see that the next (or previous) logical step would be a "commercial ban" of frontier models, all "distilled" from an enormous amount of copyrighted material?

I'm not arguing the merits of such a ban, I'm simply stating a fact - that thinking transcripts likely won't return until such a ban is in place.
