Can anyone comment on how copyright and IP laws might play with this kind of concept? I can see accidental collision with existing branding, particularly if real world designs were ingested as training data. From what I understand that may not occur with this product, but it's an interesting line of thought.

That's a very real concern for us. We are taking a few measures for this and are continuing to look into this. - As soon as a logo is purchased with a unique icon, we delete that icon from our data. - We manually go through our icon repositories and try to find icons that have already been used in logos and delete them.

We'll continue doing this until we are left with stuff that has not been used anywhere else in a logo.

Interesting, thanks for the response. Perhaps eventually ML could form part of a solution to that problem too
