A single image "comes from" millions or even billions of pieces. It truly works like that (albeit counterintuitive). It doesn't just combine 4 or 5 images and apply a filter.
- emrah 3y agoThat's great. Then what's the fuss about copyright if the pieces from the original training data are that tiny? I saw mentions of companies being reluctant to use AI generated images because of potential copyright issues. What issues are they talking about?
- raincole 3y agoFirst of all, lawmakers and judges don't necessarily know how AI works. But even an image is made of a lot of pieces*, it's still not 100% "legal-concern-clean". Consider this hypothetical scenario: you collect one million different photos of McDonald's logo, and one million other random photos. Then you train your diffusion model and tell it to generate a logo. Of course it'd be still very similar to McDonald's logo. SD's training data is supposed to be much more diversed than that. But how could we be sure? That's where the fuss comes from. * (pieces of information, not pixels)
