Ofc not, that's way different, that's beyond the use of public use.

If I browse to your Instagram, look at some of your art, record some numbers about it, observe your style and then leave that's perfectly fine right? If I then took my numbers and observations from your art and everybody else's that I looked and merged them together to make my own style that would also be fine right? Well that's AI, that's all it does on a simple level

    But they are still profiting off of it. Dall-E doesn't make images out of the kindness of OpenAI's heart. They're a for-profit company. That really doesn't make it different from Disney, does it?

    Sure, Dall-E has a profit motive, but then what about all the open source models that are trained on the same or similar data and artworks?

    You've strayed very far from:

    if you post publicly, expect it to be used publicly

    What is the difference between Dall-E scraping the art and an open source model doing it other than Dall-E making money at it? It's still using it publicly.
