A pretty big announcement... It’s been an absolutely wild ride building Metaphysic.ai with my co-founders and our extraordinary team. Four years ago during the pandemic I was in LA zooming with Chris Ume in Thailand. Hey, wouldn’t it be fun if Tom Cruise was on TikTok? We made some videos that were creative, original, and somehow lit the world on fire. Then Tom Graham and Kevin Ume linked arms and we set out to build a company around generative AI. Wouldn’t it be cool if we brought back Elvis? Hey - we should collaborate with Hip Hop legends and do it LIVE on global TV. Let’s help studios make BIG movies - Aliens, Mad Max, Here - in ways that could never before have been brought to life. Wait, what if Sinatra were alive today?!… Of course, we had no idea how to do any of these things or what the next few years had in store. But we knew we needed to lead with ethics and persevered to develop some astonishing technology that solved real-time creative problems. Today, we are merging with the world’s leading VFX company DNEG to become BRAHMA. We will combine DNEG’s multiple Academy Award winning visual effects and animation toolsets and marry them with the incredible power of generative AI to build products empowering content creators across industries at scale. From media and entertainment, to retail, to healthcare, to education and beyond - if you have a story to tell, we now have the tools to bring it to life faster, cheaper, and better than ever before. There are too many people to thank (colleagues, investors, artists), but most of all, I want to thank YOU who saw those early DeepTom video and laughed at them (and not at me when I decided to go all-in on this tech). This merger isn’t just about combining two companies - it’s about creating a new paradigm for how stories will be told in the future. I’m excited for what lies ahead as we work to ensure this technology serves human flourishing and creativity. Onward! … simply couldn’t happen without Martin D. Adams Jo Plaete Alejandro Lopez Ed Ulbrich, Simon Deckers, Beni Beeri Issembert ???, Zehra Soysal Chris Smith, Swarnendu Halder and countless others! ????

Being in the publishing business is already really hard and AI platforms scraping their content is absolutely an existential threat. Conde Nest struck a licensing deal with OpenAI last year and this will be the way forward in order for AI platforms and publishers to live in peaceful co-existence - the alternative is legal battles and we will likely see a rising amount of those in the next year or two.

U.S. Copyright Office (finally) registers a single AI-generated image aptly titled "A Single Piece of American Cheese" ?? by the company Invoke AI. How? Based on the human creator's "selection, coordination, or arrangement" of 31 elements via inpainting, a process the author recorded on video! Authorship based on selection and arrangement. Copyright 101. See Feist. Feeling slightly vindicated ?? ?? after devoting nearly 2 years to show why the Copyright Office's initial position was wrong. This is a welcome step in the right direction. The legal fight isn't over, though. Courts have yet to weigh in on prompt-engineered work. Jason Allen has a case, which just got stronger. ?? ??. Stay tuned. And congrats to Kent Keirsey and Invoke. ?? Full story: https://lnkd.in/g9r46Ens

A little validation feels good… Earlier today the US Copyright Office released its long-awaited report on the copyrightability of AI-generated works.?The bottom line is that human control over the creative process remains key to copyright protection.?And it observes that today’s generative AI models, even with detailed prompts, typically make too many independent decisions to qualify. The good news is that AI-assisted creative workflows can still meet the requirements.?But only when meaningful human control is shown.?This is determined on a case-by-case basis with evidence of human ideation, selection, editing, arrangement, adaptation, etc. Read the report here: https://lnkd.in/g62Dkcua And here's the validation: CopySightAI, where I lend my expertise, has been planning for this for nearly a year.?We built a slick tool that seamlessly integrates with the creative workflow.?It captures all of the human creativity poured into a genAI-assisted project to help get your work protected.?Message me if you want to learn more! #AI #Copyright #TechNews #CopySightAI
