I could understand Microsoft and OpenAI may have special contract. However, developers who use open sourced model are excluded to this special contract, and should follow the Term of Use. So this models work like the trap for violation.

According to the Orca paper (Orca, Orca2), Orca utilizes responses from ChatGPT 3.5 and GPT-4 to train the model. However, the Terms of use of Open AI explicitly prohibit the "Use Output to develop models that compete with OpenAI.". I am curios about how Microsoft Research team interpreted OpenAI's policy and obtained approval to release competitive models. I am understanding this models are research purpose only but I think authors should mention about the concern when applyting this method in actual use.
