Meanwhile as we speak websites like Civitai and others started to paywall these models and outputs. It’s going to get ugly for some of them.

This has been known for a long time. The main point of contention now will be who is liable for infringing outputs. The convenient answer would be to put the responsibility on the users, who would then have to avoid sharing/profiting from infringing images. In my opinion this solution can only apply in cases where the model is being run by the end user.
When a model is served online, locked behind a subscription or api fee, the service provider is potentially selling infringing works straight to the user. Section 230 will likely play a role, but I think there will be issues in the cases where a model outputs protected characters without an explicit request.

That isn’t happening. They’ve backtracked on that plan and are working with users on a better plan.

Oh, really? Let’s see. Good to hear.

This is literally it it’s really not that complicated. Training Data set is not an infringement of any of the copyright rights. Generating copyright infringing content is still possible, but only when the work would otherwise be infringing. The involvement of not of AI in the workflow not some black pill that automatically makes infringement, but it is still possible to make a work substantially similar to a copyrighted work.
