These models can actually output images that can be extremely close to the material present in training models: - https://i.imgur.com/VikPFDT.png I also don't know if I would anthr…

I feel there's a lot missing from this, and some terminology would require clarification (What constitutes "used"?). Generally speaking, this supposition skirts around the concept …
