Well, are they really doing that?

If I rent a server to host a minecraft instance, is the company "charging for a minecraft server"? It is not clear to me that by charging users for AI usage they are complicit for whatever is generated. We don't require Adobe to prevent people from drawing Mickey either.

there are a lot of interesting legal questions here, but surely in the Adobe/Mickey case, it's the user's input that's infringing. In the examples provided here, the user's input is obviously not infringing, so that leaves... the model's output?
