Artbreeder has some interesting prior art here: nVidia forbid commercial use of StyleGAN, but artbreeder disregarded it and happily sold all the breeding you wanted. No one seemed to care. I suspect that the clause is there to prevent a startup launching on the basis of “see this trained model? Yeah, that’s literally our business model” though, which is a mildly amusing thought, wot wot. So basically, a few tens of thousands, sure. A few million, big G might have a problem. Still, the smart move would be to launch the business anyway, and gamble that you can work out a licensing deal.
