Commercial use of images generated using Copilot, Bing AI and "Image Creator from Designer"

As noted in other questions on this topic, the terms of use for Microsoft services capable of AI image generation appear to have changed in late 2023/early 2024 from a clear "non-commercial use only" policy to an ambiguous "Microsoft does not claim ownership of creations" one, with no mention of how those creations can be legally used.

Can an advisor please clarify the current (end of Jan 2024) restrictions on use of AI-generated images from Microsoft services such as Copilot, Bing AI and "Image Creator from Designer", as well as any requirements for attribution/watermarks to enable unrestricted commercial use?

    I think Chavi invented that watermark idea. There are terms at Microsoft Designer and I've read that no commercial use possible. That PDF is dated Dec. 1st, 2023. There may be later documents, look for one.

    Hi Ravi,

    How do I add a Watermark and what should the Watermark Be? If you could send me an example of an image with the Watermark on it that would be great.

    As I understanding, accorss to https://designer.microsoft.com/imageCreatorDesignerTermsOfUse.pdf

    The tool is not for commercial use. And "Microsoft does not claim ownership...", They are talking about the content you upload to the tool. so in logical summary, it is not commercial use for the output result. I think.
