The newly becomes AI in midjourney video tool Make animated clips with copyright characters from Disney and universal, found – including videos of lover Pixar Character Wall-E holding the gun.
It’s a busy month for midjourney. This week, Generative AI Startup released Sophisticated new video tools, v1, allowing users to make short animated clips from images they make or upload. The current version of the Midjourney’s AI video tool requires an image as a starting point; Creating videos using text prompts is not supported.
V1 release comes with heels of a very different kind of announcement in June: Hollywood beemoths Disney and universal submitted a Bladbuster law Against the midjourney, declaring that it violates copyright law by creating intellectual property images in Studios.
Midjourney does not immediately respond to requests for commentary. Disney and Universal repeated statements made by the executives of this case, including the Disney’s legal head Horacio Gutierrez with a “parkpoint.”
It appears that midjourney probably tried to put some guards specifically for v1. In our test, it blocks animations from the prompts based on FrozenElsa, Boss Baby, Goofy, and Mickey Mouse, even if it still makes images of these characters. When the Wired V1 is asked to live Elsa images, a “AI Moderator” blocked quick videos. “Be careful in Al cautious of realistic videos, especially people,” read the pop-up message.
These limits, such as guards, incomplete. Wired testing shows that v1 generates animated clips in different characteristics of Universal and Disney, including Homer Simpson, Shrek, Minions, Deadpool, Deadpool, and Star Wars‘C-3PO and Darth Vader. For example, when asked for an image of minions eating a banana, Midjourney has made four outputs with known cute versions, yellow characters. Then, when wired the “animate” button in one of the outputs, Midjourney has created a follow-up video with characters eating a banana skin and everything.
Although midjourney seems to hold some Disney-and universal prompts for videos, sometimes the potential of tests by changing spelling variations or repetitions. Midjourney also allows users to provide an easy to inform animation; The use of that feature, wired has made clips of copyrighted characters who conduct adults, such as weapon opening and yoda smoking.
Disney and Universal Issauit are important threats to Midjourney, facing Additional Legal Problems FROM Visual Artists that also opens the copyright breach. Although it points out most of the examples from the images of the image in the midgaourney, the complaint distributes distributing prints, copyright prints. “
The complaint includes dozens of said midjourney images showing the characters in the universe and Disney. Set was originally made as part of a report of so-called “visual plagiarism of plagiarism” from AI and Cognitive Scientific Garius Gary Marcus and visual artist Reid Southen.
“Reid taught this problem 18 months ago, and it was a little more progress and a little change,” Marcus said. “We still have the same state of non-licensed use, and the guards who work small but not very good AI graphics, bad solutions on the basis.
