[Community Update] About NovelAI Image Generation Delay

  InvokeAI is a leading creative engine for Stable Diffusion models, empowering professionals, artists, and enthusiasts to generate and create visual media using the latest AI-driven technologies. The solution offers an industry leading WebUI, supports terminal use through a CLI, and serves as the foundation for multiple commercial products.

  

Here's the essential problem. The Stable Diffusion weights file comes with a license that restricts its use in several ways, including creating images that violate local laws. The license also states (paragraph 5) that no one can provide a service that enables users to violate the usage restrictions. People like me, who distribute software distributions that allow users to run SD on their local machines (https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI), are not affected by this license because the end user downloads the weights file and has the sole responsibility for obeying the usage restrictions. However, NovelAI wants to run a service that generates the images from their own copy of the weights file. They are therefore may be held legally liable for violation of the license terms if any of their users violate the local laws in their countries. Since this includes countries with very different attitudes towards NSFW images (and other images, such as political ones), this puts NovelAI into a bind.
