This is corporate AI against open source AI.

Show me where I can download Midjourneys full model to run it locally and then we can agree to call it "open weights". Unless their base model and training data is also available, it's not open source.

These lawsuits set precedents. The laws will apply to midjourney as much as the open source, but the big players can buy the data.
