Comment on If you can't reproduce the model then it's not open-sourceparent

The company policy/backdoors issues are possibly like the whole Getty Images debacle. If a company contracts with a provider or just uses a given model themselves, they may have no idea that it's taking from a ton of copyrighted work AND with enough of a trail where the infringed party could probably win a suit.

Backdoors I'd think of is if there are some sneaky words (maybe not even english) that all of a sudden causes it to emit NSFW outputs. Microsoft's short-lived @TayandYou comes to mind (but I don't think anyone's making that mistake again, where multiple users' sessions are pooled).
