This Week in AI: Midjourney bets it can beat the copyright police

Midjourney, an AI startup specializing in image generation, recently made changes to its terms of service related to intellectual property disputes. The amendments reflect the company's belief that AI vendors will prevail in legal battles with creators whose works are used for training data. However, critics argue that not all artists agree with the fair use defense, as AI models often regurgitate copyrighted content. Midjourney, which has used copyrighted works without proactive licensing agreements, could face serious legal consequences if fair use is not upheld in court. Other recent AI news includes AI-assisted ad disputes, EU scrutiny of tech companies ahead of elections, and Google DeepMind's efforts to create AI gaming partners.
