If a bunch of random people on the internet see the potential copyright infringement and need for clarification, then it's doubtful makers of art generator algorithmsbdidnt think of the same potential issues and choose to ignore them.

How is it that CAD programs manage to be usable to power users with graphical interfaces and keybind then? If the problem is that UI has been dumbed down to the point of being unusable for the sake of design, then I don't think adding

Why don't US companies pay foreign workers US wages? The answer I come up with is that they chose to hire workers in disadvantaged situations(relative to opportunity and local labour laws) to reduce operating costs. To me, using people

When gzip turns my 10k character ASCII text file into a a 2kb archive, has it "compressed each character down to a fifth of a byte per character"? No, thats a misunderstanding of compression. Just like gzip, training stable diffus

Once you start recreating copyrighted works from hashes this analogy becomes relevant, until then how can you compare the two when the distinguishing feature is its ability to reproduce the training data.

There only needs to be an answer if it's determined that some number isn't copyright infringement. The easy answer would be to say that the process is what prevents the works from being transformative(and thus copyrightable) and n

You took the images, encoded them in a computer process, and the result is able to reproduce some of those images. I fail to see why the size of the training set in bytes and the size of the model in bytes matters. Especially if, as other c

So it's fine to distribute copyrighted works, as long as they're jpeg(lossy) encoded? I don't think the law would agree with you.

Not really, since one of the major characteristics is being able to recover the copyrighted work from the encoded version. Since md5 hashes don't share this property, they're not "in that vein".
