Databricks and Shutterstock are trying to remove the copyright risk from AI image generation (exclusive)
Briefly

Most image generators are trained on web-scraped images, but ImageAI uses only Shutterstock images to avoid copyright risks, ensuring no content resembles that of unpaid creators.
Head of generative AI at Databricks, Naveen Rao, compares ImageAI to what Apple did for MP3s, highlighting the need to pay creators and ensure legal compliance in AI-generated content.
Unlike Napster's impact on music, where MP3s were essentially free, ImageAI caters to businesses willing to pay for AI-generated images and avoid copyright issues in campaigns spanning various media.
Enterprises can access the ImageAI model hosted on Databricks servers through an API, emphasizing the importance of ensuring legal permission upfront to avoid copyright infringement risks.
