The question of copyright, lawsuits, and AI is going to very quickly come to a head. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creatives from artists<\/a> to comedians<\/a> are filing lawsuits, staging online ‘protests’, and suing various AI-based companies for copyright infringement. In 2022, ArtStation members staged a online campaign<\/a> against AI generated artwork by posting ‘No AI art’ images in their portfolios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aitchison Boyle emphasized that Valve is not attempting to discourage the use of AI but the confusion arose due to Valve\u2019s ongoing efforts to incorporate AI technology into its existing review process while ensuring compliance with copyright laws.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
