[convexfunction]

Not to mention that the totality of all other images is in most cases probably more "influential" than the few most visually similar images! Consider the thought experiment:

1. Take the prompt you used, and use it with a model checkpoint that was trained identically to whatever model you're using, except that the top 21 images this website shows you are removed. In most cases, while your outputs won't be identical (I assume), you can probably get something pretty similar.

2. Now, take that same prompt, and use it with a model checkpoint that was only trained on the top 21 images this website shows you. (AFAIK you can't really do this because Stability hasn't released a "completely untrained" version of any of their models... though maybe they have and nobody cares because it's useless for most purposes.) I'm not completely sure what you'd get, but my bet would be that you get either nonsense or a memorized replica of one of the training images, not the same output image you got previously.
