#StableDiffusion
@theexplorographer I was wondering about this today. I'm just an amateur photographer, but on my pixelfed blog I clearly state that all the images are subject to CC BY-NC-ND.
The ND term restricts derivative work from being distributed. Would this not mean that while the AI can look at it, it cannot distribute anything that builds on my work? Or am I misenterpreting the license?
My point is; if your work is under a license you already opted out.. no?
#StableDiffusion
Opting out in this case means telling them "Hey you're violating my rights here, maybe you could stop?". Because by default they assume everyone is okay with that. 😜
Also, though, there isn't case (or statutory) law on whether either the neural networks themselves, or the images they produce, are derivative works in the legal sense. All sorts of things that are obviously "derivative" in the normal use of that word aren't derivative works for the purpose of copyright protection. It's all a mess of unknowns.
So in a way Stability is being generous by admitting that their uses might possibly be something a creator might object to, and allowing an opt out...

Also, how were you able to compose a Toot of more than 500 characters? 🤓
@Primetime
That's a server-level thing, I believe. On qoto the limit is 65535ish. :)
@Primetime
It's not often used, in my experience! :D
@ceoln
Haha ok, I see :) guess I'll have to learn to be more brief, or start instance hopping. 65535 is a lot though, damn.
