Many developers we've spoken to who are interested in creating AI-generated content/or training their own AI models echo concerns about how these outputs will be used.

For instance, we worked with a developer who was creating a platform for SDXL LoRAs who echo'd sentiments that the platform could easily be used for malintent. With Proteus, he feels much more at ease that content produced on his platform will be traceable/its provenance will be known online.

We hope that Proteus will provide a safe framework for anyone dabbling in content online to be able to safely attribute it/prove its origins - providing critical context about where that content came from.
