they risk reputational harm and since there's so many alternatives outright "brand cancellation". For example, vocal groups can lobby payment processors to deny service to any AI provider deemed unworthy. Ironic that tech enabled all of that behavior to begin with and now they're worried about it turning on them.

What viable alternatives are there to Stable Diffusion? As far as I know, it's the only way to run good image generation locally, and that's probably a big consideration for any business dabbling in it.

It's not the only open image model. It is the best one, but it's not the only one.

Yeah, the word "good" is doing the heavy lifting here - while it's not the only one that can do it, it has a very comfortable lead over all alternatives.
