Ironic that they're using copyrighted text and images without a license for their training data.

Artists don't create a transform of the training data and perform a search on the result.

@resuna Sure they do. They just do it with biological neurons instead of silicon and copper pathways.

@resuna Sure we do. Pretty much all art is a remix of previously explored techniques mixed with the artist's experiences. It's not that much different than AI mixing trained techniques with human prompts.
