The biggest challenge with fair use is that you don't know what fair use is until a court tells you what it is. Each time is different. There's a test and then we can go through the tests and tell you what different parts are. But ultimately, if the case of stable diffusion is or is not fair use, is going to be cited by one judge, maybe it gets appealed.
