Stability AI, creators of Stable Diffusion models release their products under own Stability AI Community License which is not "free" like MIT license. You are not allowed to modify the weights in certain ways.
This package is basically running the model (inference) and maybe fine tuning it using existing AI weights. A great way to learn but still could run into same licensing issue.

- refulgentis 1y agoApologies for late reply: sdnsfw and civit.ai. Thing with it is, it takes a lot of, uh, effort because you need to find the 1 in 100 that did something new and shared it. And sadly while, it did confer a leading edge in applied research, maybe as much as 6 months, (ex. Loras, model merging), it's just not as much as it used to be and the quality difference is also less than it used to be
