OpenAI's Viral Studio Ghibli Moment Highlights AI Copyright Concerns

![]() OpenAI's latest update comes on the heels of Google's release of a similar AI image feature in its Gemini Flash model, which also sparked a viral moment earlier in March when people used it to remove watermarks from images. OpenAI's and Google's latest tools make it easier than ever to re-create the styles of copyrighted works -- simply by typing a text prompt. Together, these new AI image features seem to reignite concerns at the core of several lawsuits against generative AI model developers. If these companies are training on copyrighted works, are they violating copyright law? According to Evan Brown, an intellectual property lawyer at the law firm Neal & McDevitt, products like GPT-4o's native image generator operate in a legal gray area today. Style is not explicitly protected by copyright, according to Brown, meaning OpenAI does not appear to be breaking the law simply by generating images that look like Studio Ghibli movies. However, Brown says it's plausible that OpenAI achieved this likeness by training its model on millions of frames from Ghibli's films. Even if that was the case, several courts are still deciding whether training AI models on copyrighted works falls under fair use protections. 'I think this raises the same question that we've been asking ourselves for a couple years now,' said Brown in an interview. 'What are the copyright infringement implications of going out, crawling the web, and copying into these databases?' Read more of this story at Slashdot.
