The newly released model generation model of OpenAi, Sora 2, has quickly become popular, with users making strikingly realistic clips inspired by well -known cartoons and video games such as South Park and Pokémon.
But the American tech giant gives the companies that have copyright more for such characters to stop these artificial intelligence copies, said Boss Sam Altman.
OpenAi, who also runs chatgpt, is confronted with many lawsuits about breaches New York Times.
The problem made the headlines in March when a new chatgpt image generator unleashed a stream of AI photos in the style of the Japanese animation house studio Ghibli.
Less than a week after Sora 2 was released on October 1-with an app in Tiktok style with which users could insert themselves into AI-created scenes-Zei Altman that OpenAi would sharpen his policy towards copyright protected characters.
“We will give legal horses more detailed control over generating characters,” he wrote in a blog post on Friday.
It would be “similar to the opt-in model for parable, but with extra controls,” he said.
The Wall Street Journal reported in September that OpenAi would require copyright holders, such as film studios, to abandon the release of their work in AI videos generated by Sora 2.
After the launch of the Sora 2 app with only invitation, the tool usually refused requests for videos with Disney or Marvel characters, some users said.
Clips that, as well as Japanese characters from the popular game and anime series, were widely shared.
These include advanced AI clips with Pokemon Pikachu in various film parodies, as well as scenarios with Super Mario van Nintendo and Sega Sonic the Hedgehog.
“We would like to recognize the remarkable creative output of Japan – we are struck by how deep the relationship between users and Japanese content is!” Said Altman.
Nintendo said in a post on X on Sunday that it had “had no contact with the Japanese government about generative AI”.
“Whether generative AI is involved or not, we will continue to take the necessary actions against infringement of our intellectual property rights,” said the game giant.
The Japanese legislator Akihisa Shiozaki also weighed X, warning for “serious legal and political issues”.
“I want to tackle this issue as quickly as possible to protect and cherish the leading Japanese makers,” he said.
