If you’ve been to Florence, there’s a good chance you’ve wandered the hallowed halls of the Accademia Gallery in search of the city’s most famous inhabitant: Michelangelo’s David. Along with thousands of other visitors, you may have picked up a magnet to commemorate the encounter with this nude sculptural icon, completed in 1504. But this time-honoured, cheeky souvenir may be at risk of disappearing – curators are taking aim at the less-than-reverent magnets and souvenirs sold around Florence focusing on David’s genitalia, raising questions about freedom of expression. This is not the first ti...

It all started with a bench plaque in Royal York Crescent in Clifton, Bristol, UK. There, a sardonic bench tribute was paid to a cheating husband ‘Roger’, with an engraving that reads: “For My Love 06.09.69 - 25.12.23 Husband, Father, Adulterer Yes, Roger, I Knew” Delightful. Simply delightful. The mysterious plaque caused much merriment, but has also led several to question its authenticity, or if it could be the work of famed and elusive street artist Banksy – who is originally from Bristol. The birth date inscribed is 6/9/69, with the death date is 25/12/23 - which has raised some eyebrows....

The British Phonographic Industry (BPI) has sent a legal letter of complaint to company Jammable regarding the firm's 'deepfake' technology. Jammable, which until recently was known as Voicify, uses AI-based software to mimic artists' voices so that users can include these vocals in new compositions. According to BPI, the software may have been trained using copyrighted works, which constitutes an infringement of property rights. "The music industry has long embraced new technology to innovate and grow, but Voicify …and a growing number of others like them, are misusing AI technology by taking...

From the start, the case was highly unusual: a criminal prosecution centred on the disputed ownership of a cache of hand-drafted lyrics to 'Hotel California' and other Eagles hits. Its end was even more unexpected. In the middle of trial, New York prosecutors abruptly dropped their case against three collectibles experts who had been accused of scheming to hang onto and peddle the pages, which Eagles co-founder Don Henley maintained were stolen. The decision came on Wednesday 6 March 6 amid revelations of new evidence that raised doubts about the fairness of the trial. From Lana Del Rey to Kan...

Digital news outlets The Intercept, Raw Story and AlterNet are joining the fight against unauthorised use of their journalism in artificial intelligence, filing a copyright-infringement lawsuit Wednesday against ChatGPT owner OpenAI. The organisations say thousands of their stories were used by OpenAI to train chatbots to answer questions posed to it by users, in effect piggybacking on their journalism without permission, payment or credit. San Francisco-based OpenAI did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The already beleaguered news industry sees the practice as a financial thr...

ChatGPT maker OpenAI claimed that the New York Times "paid someone to hack" their products to produce evidence for the newspaper's copyright lawsuit. The claim came from lawyers for the AI company that responded to the lawsuit in a court filing this week, published in full by both Reuters and the New York Times. OpenAI's lawyers argue in the filing that the evidence for the newspaper's lawsuit took "tens of thousands of attempts to generate" and that it was done by "targeting and exploiting a bug" that the company is addressing. "Even then, they had to feed the tool portions of the very articl...

When German photographer Robert Kneschke used an online website a year ago to see if his copyrighted photographs had been used to train artificial intelligence (AI) tools, he was “stunned and shocked” by how many he found. At least 20 watermarked images from his portfolio were collected in datasets provided by the German non-profit AI organisation LAION to train machine learning systems like Stable Diffusion. But when the photographer asked them to remove the photos, lawyers for LAION argued that the database provided access to images publicly available on the Internet and did not save copies ...

Los Angeles (AFP) - Almost a century after his big-screen debut, Mickey Mouse enters the public domain Monday, opening the floodgates to potential remakes, spin-offs, adaptations... and legal battles with Disney. The copyright on "Steamboat Willie" -- a short, black-and-white 1928 animation that first introduced audiences to the mischievous rodent who would become emblematic of American pop culture -- expires after 95 years, on January 1, under US law. The date has loomed large on the calendars of everyone from filmmakers, fans and intellectual property lawyers to Disney executives, who in the...

Washington (AFP) - The New York Times sued ChatGPT-maker OpenAI and Microsoft in a US court on Wednesday, alleging that the companies' powerful AI models used millions of articles for training without permission. Through their AI chatbots, the companies "seek to free-ride on The Times' massive investment in its journalism by using it to build substitutive products without permission or payment," the lawsuit said. Copyright is becoming a major battleground for the much-hyped generative AI sector, with publishers, musicians and artists increasingly lawyering up to get paid for technology that is...
