101 million seems like a lot for them with all the competition in AI generated images, dalle2, midjourney, and others. Shows how massive they expect AI generated art to be. I also hope that all the money doesn't make them like openAI and go closed source.

They aren't fixated on just image gen. Stable Diffusion is one of their products, not their bigger picture.

They recruited some pretty recognizable names in the industry, so its become a fairly solid bet.

Everything will be a service. If you want to use any ai you will have to buy some special currency. This is what they want to do with ai. Control it and make it a feature for other programs. Same thing what Microsoft is doing. With ai and Microsoft 365
