As crappy as it sounds.
We need an assumed and exclusive right to our own likenesses and fast.
Beware: AI companies really want to sell a terrible solution to the problem they created.
Doesn’t even matter. The systems they built for copyright enforcement are absolute shit and easily abused if you have a lot of money, as designed. And with AI added to the mix, it’s all automated so none of it will work as it should and they don’t care to fix it. Disney or whoever can just launch constant copyright claims and cripple small IP owners even when they’re completely in the wrong.
If we all know this why hasn’t there been a class action lawsuit, and don’t give me the arbitration keeps people from trying. As we have learned with this American administration, do it fast enough that the courts can’t respond amd maybe you can force it.
Class action lawsuits happen when lawyers are motivated, not when people suffer.
We do, AI companies just don’t respect it.
More importantly, platforms don’t respect it. Any malicious outside actor shouldn’t be allowed to their malice.
Lets not throw out freedom of panorama because of AI.
What does that have to do with anything here?? I don’t know about you, but my likeness is not permanently located in a public space…
Freedom of panorama (FoP) is a provision in the copyright laws of various jurisdictions that permits taking photographs and video footage and creating other images (such as paintings) of buildings and sometimes sculptures and other art works which are permanently located in a public space, without infringing on any copyright that may otherwise subsist in such works, and the publishing of such images.
Misleading title. This isn’t an “AI Company”. As far as I can tell, it’s some scammer that used AI Tools to create similar music and then copyright strike the original artist to steal their revenue.
The major issue here is how YouTube handles these claims. From the article:
YouTube’s dispute process places enormous trust in whoever files the claim, with little built-in protection for independent artists who lack legal resources.
This isn’t something new and was already being done before AI tools were available.
Same scam as before, just made a lot easier by AI bullshit unfortunately.
