As a seasoned gamer and tech enthusiast who has spent countless hours immersed in the worlds of Blade Runner and Cyberpunk, I find myself torn between two futuristic realms. On one hand, I’m intrigued by Elon Musk’s visionary approach to technology and transportation with Tesla’s Cybercab. On the other, I’m appalled by the allegations that AI-generated images from Blade Runner 2049 were misused in promotional materials for this project.
Alcon Entertainment, producers of Blade Runner 2049, have filed a lawsuit against Tesla and Warner Bros., alleging that Tesla employed AI to create images for their Cybercab robotaxi promotion, which were based on imagery from the 2017 film. In simpler terms, they’re accusing Tesla of using movie stills in their promotional materials without permission.
Today, Alcon Entertainment has filed a lawsuit in a California court, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. This lawsuit focuses on promotional materials used at Tesla’s recent robotaxi event, which incorporated images related to sci-fi films such as Back to the Future and Blade Runner 2049. In this legal action, Alcon Entertainment expresses their discomfort about being linked with Elon Musk due to his controversial political and social views.
As a passionate fan, I find myself mentioning that Warner Bros., who graciously hosted Tesla’s robotaxi event at its movie studio in Burbank, California, is one of the parties named in a lawsuit for allegedly helping to solidify the partnership. Notably, Warner Bros. was the distributor for Blade Runner 2049.
In a recent development, the legal action taken against Tesla and Warner Bros. serves as a prime illustration of intellectual property owners challenging the utilization of their assets for creating content using artificial intelligence. As the entertainment sector navigates the escalating influence of AI, Shacknews brings you the most significant news stories on this topic.
