AI & Creativity:
The $1.8B Revolution
Gaming: All-In on AI
Adoption is aggressive. Efficiency is the goal.
"95% of developers say AI helps reduce repetitive tasks like localization and coding, freeing them for creative work."
Hollywood: The Disruption
Cautious budgets, but massive labor implications.
"The SAG-AFTRA strikes highlighted the existential fear: Digital Replicas replacing background actors."
The Legal Battlefield
Who owns the output when the input is copyrighted? The courts are deciding now.
NYT vs OpenAI
The New York Times has sued OpenAI and Microsoft for billions. The core allegation: "Free-Riding".
The NYT claims OpenAI ingested millions of articles without permission to build ChatGPT. They argue that the AI can generate "verbatim" excerpts of paywalled content, effectively creating a substitutive product that steals their audience.
OpenAI's defense? "Fair Use". They argue that training AI is transformative—learning patterns, not copying text. The outcome of this case will define the future of AI copyright.
Key Legal Questions
- Is training an AI model on copyrighted data "Fair Use"?
- Can AI-generated content be copyrighted? (Currently: No)
- Do "Digital Replicas" of actors violate publicity rights?
