The positive solution is to scrape Wikimedia Commons for everything in "Category: PD-Art-old-100" and train from scratch on that data. Wikimedia Commons is well-moderated, the image data is public domain[0], and the labels can be filtered down to CC-BY or CC-BY-SA subsets[1]. Your resulting model will be CC-BY-SA licensed and the output completely copyright-free.
For the record, that's what I've been trying to do[2]; my stumbling blocks have been training time and a bug where my resulting pipeline seems to do the opposite of what I ask[3]. I'm assuming it's because my wikitext parser was broken and CLIP didn't have enough text data to train on; I'll have the answer tomorrow when I have a fully-trained U-Net to play with.
If I can ever get this working, I want to also build a CLIP pipeline that can attribute generated images against the training set. This would make it possible to safely use CC-BY and CC-BY-SA datasets: after generating
