Datasets:
How is that CC0?
At a glance I see images derive from Delicious in Dungeon anime
In fact, copyright law works differently in different countries, and no license can cover all cases when you are dealing with someone else’s intellectual property — you should primarily look at the legislation of your own country.
Personally, in my country none of the works posted here have any licensing restrictions, and I can freely use them however I want.
CC0 in the dataset only means that I am not imposing any restrictions of my own on the work I have done.
Also, if you look at the terms under which I purchased the Blu-ray discs, there are no restrictions on their use in neural networks.
Thanks for your response.

So the images in this dataset were created by a generative AI?
I used the contents of Blu-ray discs purchased in my own country. Due to unusual local legislation, there is a non-standard purchase agreement, and it does not impose restrictions on use in neural networks. Technically, this is a gray area related to the slow pace of legal changes: as long as I do not present the content as my own, I can do anything with it.
However, you should always check the laws in your own country to avoid problems. This also applies to datasets generated with diffusion models — in some countries you can be sued simply for using similar-looking images.
But this isn’t a neural network, datasets aren’t in the same gray area. That’s probably one of the reasons why companies don’t release their (full) training sets.
