🎬💥 Warner Bros. is taking Midjourney to court for some serious character copying! They're calling out the AI tool for letting folks create images of Batman, Bugs Bunny, Scooby-Doo, and other iconic characters without permission. 🐰📸
Disney and Universal have already thrown similar punches at Midjourney. Warner's got a whole dossier comparing their official art to what users whip up on the platform. They argue it’s not just fan art—it’s real competition! Imagine downloading these images and slapping them on t-shirts or posters! 😱👕
They're asking for $150k for EACH infringement, which could add up to billions given Midjourney's reach! 💸💸
Midjourney is firing back with the fair use defense, claiming studios also use generative AI tools in their work—guess they can’t “play both sides.” 🎭🤖
Stay tuned for this epic showdown! 🍿✨ #LegalDrama #AIArt
