Story innovates open source AI for creator monetization.
Palo Alto, USA, January 9, 2025, Chainwire
Story leverages the Stability AI open model to connect creators and developers and drive open source AI innovation.
Story, the world’s leading intellectual property blockchain, announced that it is using Stability AI’s cutting-edge model to usher in a new era of open source AI development. Through this, contributors such as creators, developers, and artists can participate in the AI ecosystem. Story aims to use technology from Stability AI to solve the critical challenge of properly attributing, tracking, and monetizing creative work generated through AI.
Story is focused on solving the lack of a clear path for creators to monetize their derivative works in the open source ecosystem. Despite incredible advances in AI, proper attribution and monetization of creator IP has not kept pace with innovation.
“We are excited to leverage Stability AI’s models to address some of the most pressing challenges we face with the rapid growth of AI.” said Jason Zhao, co-founder and chief protocol officer of PIP Labs, an early core contributor to Story.. “The combination of AI and blockchain is not only incredibly powerful, but essential. In an era of AI-driven creative abundance, blockchain secures digital property rights. By leveraging Stability AI’s technology and Story’s technology, we are demonstrating how the right incentive structure can drive AI development by ensuring contribution and empowering creators.”
Story and its ecosystem applications use Stability AI’s leading native image model to build AI applications with attribution tracking throughout the AI development lifecycle to ensure fair compensation to all creators associated with monetized output. Mahojin and ABLO are two AI applications built on Story that leverage Stability AI’s foundational model and Story’s blockchain technology. Mahojin, a search-creation AI remixing platform, and ABLO, a collaborative AI platform that enables creators to design real-world products using leading brand IP, are using a model for Stability AI. It allows users to easily realize their creative vision and utilizes Story technology to enable better creation. Provenance and attribution across the AI stack. These two projects demonstrate real-world use cases and demonstrate how creators can protect their IP and open new ways to earn money for their contributions in a dynamic shared creative economy.
“Empowering creators is at the core of everything we do at Stability AI. “We’re excited to see our model being used in Story’s blockchain technology to ensure proper attribution and reward contributors.” Scott Trowbridge, Vice President, Stability AI.
Story is committed to exploring diverse use cases for how AI and blockchain can be combined to meet the evolving needs of creators and developers in the era of generative AI. For example, one area of exploration is registering training data, such as an artist’s unique style or voice, as IP with transparent terms of use in Stories. Anyone can then use this IP to train and fine-tune their own models. When creators use this model to produce monetized output, everyone in this production chain wins and benefits together.
By leveraging Stability AI’s cutting-edge models, Story is taking important steps toward creating a sustainable and fair Internet in the AI era.
