ChatGPT Spawns Copyright Controversy over Ghibli-Style AI-Generated Images

A new feature of OpenAI's AI chatbot ChatGPT has triggered a craze for generating images in the animation style of Studio Ghibli. OpenAI CEO Altman also changed the avatar on the X platform to a Ghibli-style image. Such AI-generated images uploaded to social platforms are endless. However, some people are worried that this may lead to copyright issues. OpenAI released a new ChatGPT image generator on Tuesday, allowing users to specify the artistic style for image processing. Since then, a large number of AI-generated images have emerged on social platforms, such as a Ghibli-style image of Trump's meeting with Ukrainian President Zelensky. The new feature makes it easier to replicate the style of copyrighted works. Intellectual property experts believe this is a "gray area" legally and may trigger copyright disputes.
