> OpenAI is planning to release a new version of its Sora video generator that [1]creates videos featuring copyrighted material unless copyright holders opt out of having their work appear, according to people familiar with the matter. OpenAI began alerting talent agencies and studios about the forthcoming product and its opt-out process over the last week and plans to release the new version in the coming days, the people said.
>
> The new opt-out process means that movie studios and other intellectual property owners would have to explicitly ask OpenAI not to include their copyrighted material in videos Sora creates. While copyrighted characters will require an opt-out, the new product won't generate images of recognizable public figures without their permission, people familiar with OpenAI's thinking said.

How about recognizable non-public figures? (Score:1)
If my picture happens to appear in the training data but I'm not a public figure, I still don't want my face to show up in any generated results.

I would call it OpenAI's "raping of content producers". Far more accurate.
Great idea in theory (Score:2)
In practice, the most common prompt will be "make me a video featuring a character that looks almost exactly like without violating copyright
Does the created character need to be identical to be a violation?
How small a change is required to make it acceptable?
Is the law clear on the issue?
Will AI be the judge?

Slashdot readers aren't the ones you need to worry about. And the folks you DO need to be careful of, already know who you are.

That's not how copyright works! That's not how any of this works!
Confused by YouTube (Score:2)
I think they have been confused into thinking that YouTube's model, where third parties may create videos with infringing content and then upload them, will work for them despite the fact that in their case it is them creating the infringing content and uploading it. Still, I expect the incoming deluge of strongly worded legal letters from extremely well paid corporate lawyers will correct this confusion.

I'll be selling your house next year and keeping the proceeds for myself, but if you don't want me to you can write me a letter stating so. It's simple!
