With competitors like <a href=\"https:\/\/dall-e.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"DALL-E\">DALL-E<\/a> still getting complaints about artists\u2019 work being replicated, the company decided to make a few changes. It specifically <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/meta-cicero-ai-diplomacy-beat-humans\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"addresses these fears\">addresses these fears<\/a>, reducing how much the rendered image looks like the original artwork.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While there\u2019s still some contention on <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/who-owns-ai-generated-artwork\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"whether or not AI-rendered images can be copyrighted\">whether or not AI-rendered images can be copyrighted<\/a>, artists don\u2019t like their work being replicated without permission. However, some see it as an opportunity to market their work. Stable Diffusion developers have said they will provide a future update where artists can choose if they want their work protected from AI renderings or if it doesn\u2019t matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/Stable-Diffusion-2.0-update-2.jpg\" alt=\"Stable Diffusion 2.0 update\" class=\"wp-image-207156\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another issue that Stable Diffusion 2.0 deals with is NSFW or pornographic content. There seem to have been too many instances where users have placed celebrities or other people in unwelcoming images. To protect others from such technological abuse, it has removed the ability to do this. Users have now taken to Reddit, saying that the developers have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/StableDiffusion\/comments\/z3ferx\/comment\/ixlmkkj\/?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=web2x&amp;context=3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">nerfed the open-source model<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most significant complaint is that <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/ai-revolution-threat-or-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"limiting an open-source model\">limiting an open-source model<\/a> like Stable Diffusion no longer makes it open-source. Some are stating that the decision to replicate artists or include NSFW content should be left up to the user. It definitely makes for an interesting debate about the nature of open-source systems and what should or should not be allowed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With artificial intelligence moving to smarter ways of producing images from text, there have been many fears by artists that their work will be replicated without their permission.
