Thanks to the recently announced collaboration between Shutterstock and OpenAI, customers using Shutterstock's online design platform can quickly request AI-generated images in less than 10 seconds. More importantly, any painting created by artificial intelligence is “license ready.”
So, instead of trying to block AI-generated content, Shutterstock wants to sell it. In an announcement back in October, the company mentioned that it plans to create a cash fund that will compensate artists when image-generating artificial intelligence uses their work.
Over the past two years, Shutterstock has established strategic partnerships with key industry players such as OpenAI and LG AI Research to support their generative AI research efforts.
The AI image generator can be found at shutterstock.com.
It appears that normal operation of Shutterstock from Russia is only available via a VPN. By the way, the background to the image for this post was generated by AI from Shutterstock.
