    Yeah, but until I perform it without a license for profit, I don’t get sued.

    So it’s up to the user to make sure that if any material that is generated is copyright infringing, it should not be used.

      Otakon anime music videos have no profits but they explicitly get a license from RIAA to play songs in public.

        So? I’m not saying those are fair terms, I would also prefer if that were not the case, but AI isn’t performing in public any more having a guitar with you in public is ripping off Metallica.

          You don’t need to perform “for profit” to get sued for copyright infringement.

          but AI isn’t performing in public any more having a guitar with you in public is ripping off Metallica.

          Is the Joker image in that article derivative or substantially similar to a copyrighted work? Is the query available to anyone who uses Midjourney? Are the training weights being copied from server-to-server behind the scenes? Were the training weights derived from copyrighted data?
