AI-Generated Content Sparks Copyright Concerns

Published on 4.5.25

  The rapid growth of OpenAI's ChatGPT has brought attention to the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and intellectual property rights. The tool's ability to generate sophisticated images has sparked a viral trend on social media platforms, particularly in the style of Studio Ghibli classics. OpenAI's decision to ban AI-generated images mimicking Studio Ghibli's distinctive style is an attempt to protect the intellectual property rights of the Japanese animation studio. This move comes as a US federal court panel considers consolidating copyright suits against OpenAI Inc., brought by authors, publishers, and news organizations. The lawsuits highlight the need for clearer guidelines on AI-generated content and its potential impact on copyright laws. Experts warn that users who upload personal images to ChatGPT may be giving the company legal ground to process their photos, potentially leading to data collection and misuse. Proton notes that once photos are shared with AI, users lose control over how they're used, which can include defamatory or harassing content, personalized ads, or being sold to third parties. The success of ChatGPT has also raised concerns about the potential for AI-generated images to be used in ways that infringe on individuals' rights.
