Now a bit of an ethics question: is it ok to use/post results that have these imitated logos/sigs/etc. or should they be given up on the minute you spot it? I have some beautiful pieces that are not image2image so no copying done on my part, but like you said the AI can assume any names mentioned in a prompt for artist style MUST have signatures or logos. I'm leery of cropping or cleaning them up and using them because I don't want to accidentally plagiarize if by some chance the program spit out another artist's actual work, not an interpretation of their style. Haven't found a way yet to read those symbols, etc. that SD uses for "signatures" because like I said, it's totally pants at real words. 

Easy for me I'm as unethical as you can get, I fought in an unethical war in Vietnam you can never recover from that. If you don't want your art used by anybody else online don't post it online...my 2cents on ethics. Doctors shouldhave  ethics anybody dealing with Law and Politics should have ethics but they're all corrupt so the hell with ethics. If one doesn't intentionally take someone else's work as their own it's up to their own conscious if they should use it or not...again my 2cents.

Remember...No matter where you go there you are
