So it appears to be the #FSF's position, that copyleft in the GNUFDL applies to the training data and the resulting LLM as well? BUT they do not have appetite to enforce their license?

Obviously, the right thing to do is protect computing freedom: share complete training inputs with every user of the LLM, together with the complete model, training configuration settings, and the accompanying software source code."

and

the FSF noted it didn't have the resources for a protracted legal battle over the issue. It said, however, that if it were to participate in a lawsuit like Bartz v. Anthropic, and found its copyright and license violated, "We would certainly request user freedom as compensation."

SURELY tons of #GNU project code is in these LLMS? BUT the FSF doesn't sound like it's prepared to spearhead the charge? If not the FSF who?
