Graphic neural networks. Licenses and terms of use

Exactly 10 months ago I released a comparative review of several popular neurons. It touched on the topic of content licensing. Since then, a lot has changed, and I decided to roll out an update of information regarding the rights and terms of use of services:

  • DALL-E 3 does not act as a separate element, but is part of ChataGPT. Usage policy here.

  • DALL-E from Copilot/Designers/Bing, generally free through Microsoft tools – not recommended for commercial use. About it written here. Because Microsoft has a very fluid policy on this issue, extremely controversial and constantly changing.

  • Mid (for money yes) journey just does NOT change. Just like a year ago, all images can be used for commercial purposes. If you have PRO and MEGA subscriptions + hidden mode, then no one will be able to use your pics and prompts for their generations. More details here.

  • Stable Diffusion — for each model you need to read the literature or at least the comments of its creator. Or you will have to use Model + Laura + Metadata Cleaning so that they don’t take you by the ass. Otherwise, good health.

  • Kandinsky. Documents have been added (they weren’t there before). The rights to the generated content belong to the user. More details here.

  • Masterpiece too added documents (they didn’t exist before either), but here all rights already belong to Yandex. The user has the right only to non-commercial use of images.

  • Recraft. There is nothing about him in the article, but there is no need for it. They provide a commercial license to the user for free, but all generations are visible in the general gallery. Paid – genki are hidden, everything is quite simple. Doc lies here.

  • Shutterstock with DALL-E under the hood. On the main page of their AI website It is indicated that generation is free, but when you try to generate it, it turns out that it is $10/month. These images can be sold there on Shatter, the license belongs to the person. You can’t hack something that has a copyright, but Shatter’s commission, when sending such a pic for sale, will shave it off.

  • Leonardo — while the paid subscription is in effect, the user owns his genes and can use them for commercial purposes. It’s like with a font license. BUT if your paid subscription has expired, then Leonardo himself and other people can use your genks in both the tail and mane. Here's the details with all links.

  • Freepik (or rather their Picaso) is a natural chic. Because it seems that it can be used in materials for clients, but not in materials for sales. Can be used in books and magazines, but not where the visual part is large. Who and how will evaluate this are big questions. More details here. I would not recommend using it for commercial purposes. They themselves write that the rules are constantly changing.

  • Ideogram. While I was reading them Terms of Use, my brain almost swelled. Made up by some hardened bastards. In general, the user has a lot of restrictions and responsibilities; Ideogram has all the rights to each user bundle. Whether the user has the right to use images at all is NOT INDICATED. He has the right to generate them, and this is where the list of rights ends. AND EVEN IF the user pushes his pictures into Ideogram (although I did not find such a function there) – they belong to Ideogram. Isn't their creator Zuckerberg? Lots of coincidences.
