Tell me where it says training a model is infringing on copyright.

How is creating a derivative of someone’s work and selling it not copyright infringement?

  • Who said anything about creating a derivative? Surely you don't mean to say that any image created with a model trained on copyrighted data counts as a derivative of it. Edit: Or worse, that the model itself is derivative, something so different from an image must count as transformative work!.

    Also who said anything about selling?

    • The model itself is a derivative. And it’s not really that transformative, it’s basically the input data compressed with highly lossy compression.

      All the corporations that are offering AI as a paid service?
