> Stability AI is well aware that Stable Diffusion generates images that include distorted versions of Getty Images’ watermark and other watermarks, but it has not modified its model to prevent that from happening. > Making matters worse, Stability AI has caused the Stable Diffusion model to incorporate a modified version of the Getty Images’ watermark to bizarre or grotesque synthetic imagery that tarnishes Getty Images’ hard-earned reputation, such as the image below (see page 18 for an example) Getty is going to win something. There is clearly a problem with the model. The outputs are often not novel enough to make them indistinguishable from the training data.
