Especially in the case of LLMs where new API services are popping up all over the place, an "ethical" license like agpl that requires the source be shared for web services would would accelerate development of the space as a whole immensely.

I think when they say ethical they're talking about RAIL which has clauses about not doing bad guy stuff with their models, not AGPL.

The StableLM license is actually a ShareAlike license requiring sharing of modified model weights under the same permissive license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/
