Getty Images Bans AI-Generated Images Over Copyright Concerns

This is is part of my live-learning series! I will be updating this post as I continue through my journey. I apologize for any grammatical errors or incoherent thoughts. This is a practice to help me share things that are valuable without falling apart from the pressure of perfection. 

Episode Summary

– Concerns over the copyright of images generated by engines like Stable Diffusion, Midjourney and DALL-E
– Engines were trained on data on the web including original images and artwork
– The ban does not affect the submission of 3D renders
– Confidence in stock photo site depends on customers knowing there will be no legal issues
– Getty Images is reportedly relying on users to report offending content
– Also working with the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity to create a filter to automatically flag up suspect images
– Most images can’t be uploaded straight away anyways due to low resolution and other glitches
– Other tools are used to upscale and fix oddities in order to enable uploads
– Typically, original artwork or image can be used if it is “substantially transformed”
– “The problem is, the current copyright law is outdated and is not keeping up with the technology” – Jason Juan
– Shutterstock appears to be following in the footsteps of Getty Images
