Regardless of whether or not training an AI on stock images violates the license, there's a very real problem with that watermark being present, which is that it proves their AI is prone to copying large swaths of images from gettyimages unaltered, and that definitely is a license violation.
This makes me think back to the controversy over github copilot; if these AIs are going to be trained on other peoples' IP then somebody needs to be held accountable when they commit plagiarism.
Otherwise, im sure Microsoft won't mind my new "gamemaker AI" that i trained on that new halo game last year, or this "OS AI" that I trained on windows 11.
