Disney und Universal klagen gegen Midjourney: Urheberrecht auf Figuren
Midjourneys Bildgenerator generiert bekannte Figuren wie Shrek, Darth Vader oder Buzz Lightyear. Das findet Disney nicht lustig.

‘One day I overheard my boss saying: just put it in ChatGPT’: the workers who lost their jobs to AI
From a radio host replaced by avatars to a comic artist whose drawings have been copied by Midjourney, how does it feel to be replaced by a bot?

I wonder how this can be leveraged in our #VFX industry.
Can you position a company as the guys who’ll fix stuff that another team messed up because they thought they can do an effects shot with Midjourney but then ended up with nothing to show once the director wanted a simple revision like turning that object a tiny bit more or making the cool explosion more „swooosh“ instead of „wooosh“?

Would you like another prediction? Generative AI as we know it is a bubble. It’s unsustainable. Relying on it now will result in very expensive work to undo that damage in years to come. And we’re going to live with the accuracy debt for decades. We are going to have an enormous skills and critical thinking shortage in the very near future, once the layoffs have slowed, and organisations start to cave in under the weight of their own shortsightedness. Consultancy demand will go through…

“Midjourney is the quintessential copyright free-rider and a bottomless pit of plagiarism. Piracy is piracy, and whether an infringing image or video is made with AI or another technology does not make it any less infringing” — Disney and Universal

This week, we were discussing the central question Can we "predict" a word? as the basis for statistical language models in our #ISE2025 lecture. Of course, I wasx trying Shakespeare quotes to motivate the (international) students to complement the quotes with "predicted" missing words ;-)
"All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely...."

Slide from the Information Service Engineering 2025 lecture, Natural Language Processing 03, 2.10 Language Models. The Slide shows a graphical portrait of William Shakespeare (created by midjourney AI) as an ink sketch with yellow accents. The text states "Can we "predict" a word?"
