The First National Case Involving Copyright Infringement in AI Art Model Training Goes to Court
Recently, the Beijing Internet Court held online hearings for four copyright infringement cases filed by illustrators against the developers and operators of AI art software. The plaintiffs in these cases are all renowned illustrators who discovered that their original works, published on a content-sharing platform, were extensively mimicked by the AI art software and used as training material to generate new artworks. These AI-generated artworks not only closely resemble the style of the plaintiffs' works but are also used heavily for commercial purposes, severely harming the interests of the plaintiffs.
