Stable diffusion is just the "brand" of the diffusion generative model, just like Midjourney. If you look at the stable-diffusion repo, it says that SD is based off a colab with StabilityAI and Runway. Most of the value from these models is the training + dataset. The architecture is open source, and we've had flavours of it for several years. SD has some improvements on how it handles diffusions, but most architecture out there use about the same, but with wildly different results. |

The datasets used are provided by LAION.
Here is a honest summary of Stability.Ai's involvement[2]:
> In their project, the LMU scientists had the support of the start-up Stability.Ai, on whose servers the AI model was trained. “This additional computing power and the extra training examples turned our AI model into one of the most powerful image synthesis algorithms,” says the computer scientist with a smile.
