The Apertus Swiss AI unfortunately doesn't seem to live up to its claims, and they have been silent on the issue brought up there. I honestly suspect the same of IBM's Granite, but have not investigated.
Thank you for the link! It does look like Apertus itself might be Free Software (the U.S. copyright office says training can infringe, but is usually fair use), but it can still output derivative works of copyrighted inputs that might prevent them from being distributed as-is (for example, requiring attribution) -- at all, much less under a strong copyleft.
