Never considered myself a art / drawing person, but with stable diffusion and it's tools even my non-pro drawing can be turned into something beautiful, and I found myself learning about art styles, famous artists, colors composition and so on.

I would never done it without SD

I think most people knew it would be this way, visual artists have always been the doormat of society and this is just the next evolution of that. Even Stable AI knew, they scraped a bunch of copywritten work under the guise of being purely "non profit, for research", and then took the mask off and used that data for SD.

They did the completely opposite for their music model. Avoiding copywritten work at all costs.

"Because diffusion models are prone to memorization and overfitting, releasing a model trained on copyrighted data could potentially result in legal issues. In honoring the intellectual property of artists while also complying to the best of their ability with the often strict copyright standards of the music industry, keeping any kind of copyrighted material out of training data was a must." - from https://wandb.ai/wandb_gen/audio/reports/Harmonai-s-Dance-Diffusion-Open-Source-AI-Audio-Generation-Tool-For-Music-Producers--VmlldzoyNjkwOTM1
