Sora 2, Copyright Infringement, and AI Boldness

The source, an excerpt from a YouTube video titled "Why Sora 2 Is TERRIFYING," addresses the significant copyright and intellectual property concerns surrounding the new Sora 2 AI video generator. The speaker highlights what they believe is blatant copyright infringement, citing examples of the AI creating content featuring well-known copyrighted characters such as Pikachu, Rick and Morty, and Spongebob. A major point of discussion is OpenAI's reported, and possibly retracted, attempt to implement an opt-out policy for copyright holders, which critics compare to excusing theft. The speaker concludes that AI companies appear to be operating with a "ask for forgiveness, not permission" mentality, prioritizing massive profits over the rights of human creators, despite ongoing legal challenges.
