OpenAI's Sora App Sparks Copyright Storm, OpenAI Responds
OpenAI's Sora app, which swiftly climbed the Apple App Store charts, has sparked a copyright storm. The AI tool's ability to generate complex content, including episodes of popular shows like 'South Park', has led to infringement allegations. OpenAI's quick response, including a new income model and stricter prompts, aims to address these issues.
Sora's initial audiovisual presentations pushed copyright boundaries, with OpenAI seemingly testing limits. The New York Times sued OpenAI and Microsoft in late 2023, alleging large-scale infringement. OpenAI's swift reaction, including CEO Sam Altman's announcement of future respect for copyrights, signals a forceful response from rights holders.
OpenAI plans to introduce an income model for video generation, sharing earnings with rights holders. This move, along with making Sora more restrictive with potentially infringing prompts, shows the company's effort to navigate the complex legal landscape. However, critics argue that Sora's output, often dubbed 'AI Slop', lacks creative or informative value.
OpenAI's Sora, despite its rapid rise and initial copyright infringements, is now facing stricter guidelines and potential revenue sharing with rights holders. The AI app's future will likely be shaped by ongoing legal disputes and efforts to improve the quality and legality of its generated content.
