Wow, so I've been trained. Many times over. Photos stolen from my personal portfolio.

Please do sign up and you'll be able to flag these images soon. We'll work to get them removed from this and future datasets built for AI training.

  "better ask for forgiveness than ask for permission" or something? It can't always work that way.

  Signed up! Very interested in this.

    This person isn't being upfront with you. Your photographs' data has already been assimilated. That's not a joke.

      This person doesn’t know what they’re talking about, or is withholding information. Yes, your photos have been used to train early iterations of the stable diffusion models. Those iterations are hardly usable in most applications, and will be phased out in A few weeks. If Spawning is able to have your images removed from the training set by version 1.7 or whatever, you will be removed from any models actually in use for real commercial applications.

  Why did you include them in the 1st place? What legal right did you have to do that?

    We (Spawning) did not create the dataset or train the models in question. We're working to make it easy for people to remove themselves from, or add themselves to, this dataset and future models.

You mean the portfolio which, by definition to be in that dataset, was marked for indexing by robots.txt, and made available publicly to unauthenticated GET requests on the internet?

  You mean my intellectual property that they are now charging to buy credits to rip off with a plagiarism algorithm? All rights reserved. I didn't agree for them to use my IP commercially.
  - XorNot 4y ago
    What intellectual property? Where in the Stable Diffusion model weights does your intellectual property exist?
    - hammyhavoc 4y ago
      The intellectual property they train an algorithm with and charge money for. This is some real mental gymnastics.
      - XorNot 4y ago
        So you're trying to assert copyright on something which isn't a copy of something? Again, where in the neural weights does your original work live? EDIT: Let's consider a simpler scenario - I take an MD5 sum of one of your photos, and then hash collide a an image from my phone camera till I find a match. Which part of this process is "stealing"?

        The part where you used my work commercially. Seeing as you like analogies: if you play music in a public building, you need a license even if you are selling coffee and not the music.
