I mean I was going to say that was ridiculous but now that I think about it more, its possible that the models can be trained to say spy on government data by calling a tool to send the information to China. And some RL might not wipe off that behavior.
I doubt current models from China are trained to do smart spying / injecting sneaky tool calls. But based on my Deep Learning experience with the models both training and inference, it's definitely possible to train a model to do this in a very subtle and hard to detect way...
So your point is valid and I think they should specify the base model for security concerns, or conduct safety evaluations on it before passing it to sensitive customers
