The controversy of Stable Diffusion is attribution. I could not care less about receiving a cut. Rather, I want my life's work in pushing particular style further than anyone has before to be recognized primarily so the next artist can trace the lineage and improve upon it.

> Stable Diffusion is definitely not claiming that it didn't train on human artists.

Stable diffusion claims that attribution is not important because "all artists copy each other".
