    I really do not believe midjourney is storing all the files on the Internet in a humongous database.

    Are you sure?

    The training weights can literally recreate images its been trained on. That makes them a humongous database, albeit with lossy compression. They aren’t replicated exactly, but they are replicated enough that I’m confident that these “Joker” images passes as copyright infringement before a jury (ie: is substantially similar).

      I understand why you’re saying that, but I personally don’t agree. As AIs face legal challenges, maybe your opinion will be adopted, we’ll see.
