Hollywood is panicking over the rise of generative AI, as it could potentially threaten originality in art and make who gets credit for intellectual property a lot murkier. Generative AI is an artificial intelligence system that can create new content based on existing data sets. It has been used to generate music, visuals, and even text with little or no input from humans. This technology has caused concern among some creatives because it raises questions about how much of their work was created by them versus generated by machines.
The implications for Hollywood are vast; not only does this technology have the potential to devalue creative works but also makes it difficult to determine who should receive credit for any given piece of art or writing produced via generative AI systems. This lack of clarity surrounding ownership rights could lead to disputes between artists and studios over royalties and other forms of compensation if they cannot agree on who owns what rights related to a particular project or product released using generative AI technologies.
As such, many in Hollywood are calling upon lawmakers around the world to develop regulations that protect both creators’ intellectual property rights while also allowing companies access to these technologies without fear of legal repercussions due to copyright infringement claims arising out of disputes over ownership credits associated with works generated using generative AIs.
