>That's the thing: It's only using the images as reference.
It can not exist without the reference and on top of that, it can only get better when having access to more references, so there is, literally actually, factually, hard-baked into its operation mechanism at a technological level, no fair use case here. That would imply a very clearly limited use of the IP, which the technology used here itself by its nature can not abide.
>It's not redistributing the images and it's only generating the characters themselves because users prompt it to.
Doesn't matter. Their service enables the IP infraction. They don't sue people for being able to draw Disney characters, they sue people for making commercial use of the IP. The vector of it are these image generators, which is why they're getting sued. Without the image gens, the sloppers don't have any material, simple as.
And don't come to me regarding locally run forks, because those only exist because the companies generated&distributed the weights in the first place.
