| ### Dataset Summary |
| |
| This dataset contains metadata about images from the [LAION2B-eb dataset](https://huggingface.co/laion/laion2B-en) curated to a reasonable best guess of 'ethically sourced' images. |
| |
| ## Dataset Structure |
| |
| ### Data Fields |
| |
| See the [laion2B](https://laion.ai/blog/laion-400-open-dataset/) release notes. |
| |
| ## Dataset Creation |
| |
| ### Curation Rationale |
| |
| This dataset contains images whose URLs are either from archive.org or whose license is Creative Commons of some sort. |
| This is a useful first pass at "public use" images, as the Creative Commons licenses are primarily voluntary and intended for public use, |
| and archive.org is a website that archives public domain images. |
| |
| ### Source Data |
| |
| The source dataset is at laion/laion2B-en and is not affiliated with this project. |
| |
| ### Annotations |
| |
| #### Annotation process |
| |
| Laion2B-en is assembled from Common Crawl data. |
| |
| ### Personal and Sensitive Information |
| |
| [More Information Needed] |
| |
| ## Considerations for Using the Data |
| |
| ### Social Impact of Dataset |
| |
| #### Is this dataset as ethical as possible? |
| |
| *No.* This dataset exists as a proof of concept. Further research could improve the sourcing of the dataset in a number of ways, particularly improving the attribution of files to their original authors. |
| |
| #### Can I willingly submit my own images to be included in the dataset? |
| |
| This is a long term goal of this project with the ideal being the generation of 'personalized' AI models for artists. Contact @devourthemoon on Twitter if this interests you. |
| |
| #### Is this dataset as robust as e.g. LAION2B? |
| |
| Absolutely not. About 0.17% of the images in the LAION2B dataset matched the filters, leading to just over 600k images in this dataset. |

| ## Additional Information |
| |
| ### Licensing Information |
| |
| When using images from this dataset, please acknowledge the combination of Creative Commons licenses. |
