Highlighting a proprietary model that was busted for plagiarizing the net, all under the misnomer of “OpenAI” kinda gives this article low trust value for me. Midjourney likewise is proprietary.

StabilityAI/Stable diffusion would be a better example to hightlights to the benefit of public domain. (The article photo is credited to Stable Diffusion, yet no mention in the article body!)

Silly to think of it but I hope the “monkey took a picture and it became public domain” precedent holds in the US for a long time.
