Disney says it has been raising its concerns with Google for months, but the latter ‚has refused to implement any technological measures to mitigate or prevent copyright infringement.‘
The Walt Disney Company has sent a cease and desist letter to Google, accusing it of training its AI models on copyrighted material and profiting from the outputs they generate.
„Google is infringing Disney’s copyrights on a massive scale, by copying a large corpus of Disney’s copyrighted works without authorization to train and develop generative artificial intelligence (‚AI‘) models and services, and by using AI models and services to commercially exploit and distribute copies of its protected works to consumers in violation of Disney’s copyrights“, reads the letter viewed by Variety.
