Stability AI Launches Paid Tiers for Commercial Use of AI Models
- Stability AI announced a paid subscription service for commercial use of models like Stable Diffusion
- Offers 3 tiers free for personal/research use; $20/month for small creators/startups; enterprise plan
- Paid tiers allow commercial use of models; free tier does not
- Stability AI remains committed to open source models, but this balances openness and profit
- Confusion around what constitutes "commercial use" and whether all commercial uses will require subscription
