Getty控告Stability AI 侵權案今開審,AI版權風暴掀波瀾




Getty Images對Stability AI發起的標誌性版權訴訟於倫敦高等法院展開

倫敦消息——Getty Images針對人工智能公司Stability AI的重大版權訴訟,於本週一在倫敦高等法院正式開庭。這宗案件被視為人工智能法規範領域的一個重要里程碑,將為未來AI相關法律設定關鍵先例。

這家總部位於西雅圖的公司,專門提供編輯內容及創意庫存照片和影片,指控Stability AI未經授權使用其圖片來「訓練」其Stable Diffusion系統。該系統可根據文字輸入生成圖片。

Getty同時在美國也對Stability AI提起類似訴訟,指控後者非法從其網站抓取數百萬張圖片,並用於開發Stable Diffusion。

Stability AI已獲得數億美元的資金支持,今年三月更宣布獲得全球最大廣告公司WPP的投資。Stability AI方面反駁指控,否認侵犯Getty版權。

Stability AI發言人表示:「這場更廣泛的爭議關乎技術創新與思想自由。使用我們工具的藝術家所創作的作品,建立於集體人類知識之上,這正是合理使用與言論自由的核心。」

隨著ChatGPT及其他AI工具在兩年多前普及,全球包括英國、美國在內多地都出現針對利用受版權保護素材訓練AI模型的訴訟。

案件影響深遠

創意產業正面對AI模型在經過現有素材訓練後,能自主產生作品的法律及倫理挑戰。包括艾爾頓·約翰在內的多位知名人士呼籲加強對藝術家的保護。

律師指出,Getty的案件將對法律產生重大影響,甚至可能影響政府制定有關AI版權保護的政策。

未參與此案的Addleshaw Goddard律師Rebecca Newman表示:「從法律角度來看,這是未知領域。此案將成為英國版權在AI時代下界線劃定的關鍵判例。」

她補充說,若Getty勝訴,Stability AI及其他AI開發商可能面臨更多類似訴訟。

律師事務所Pinsent Masons的Cerys Wyn Davies則認為,高等法院的判決「可能對市場實踐及英國作為AI開發司法管轄區的吸引力產生重大影響」。

編輯評論:

這宗Getty Images與Stability AI之間的版權訴訟,不僅是技術與法律的碰撞,更是創意產權保護與人工智能發展之間的深刻矛盾。隨著AI在創意產業中扮演越來越重要角色,如何平衡創作者權益與技術創新,是全球性難題。

Getty Images的訴訟凸顯了過去傳統版權法在面對AI時的局限。AI訓練所需的海量數據,往往來自於未經授權的素材,令法律界必須重新思考「合理使用」的範疇。Stability AI堅稱其工具創作基於「集體人類知識」,這種觀點挑戰了傳統版權的獨佔權利,甚至引出言論自由與創新自由的辯論。

對香港及全球創意界而言,這場訴訟結果將影響AI技術的應用範圍和商業模式。若法院支持Getty,未來AI開發商可能需要付出更高的版權成本,甚至限制部分訓練資料的使用;若支持Stability AI,則可能加速AI創作工具普及,但同時引發創作者權益受損的疑慮。

此案亦提醒我們,法律必須與科技發展同步演進,制定更具前瞻性和彈性的規範,既保障創作者的合理利益,也不扼殺技術創新的活力。未來在AI與版權的交匯點,如何找到公平且可持續的平衡,將是全球法律界和產業界共同面對的挑戰。

Use the original face exactly as it is, without changing a details. A female model with sharp features, defined cheekbones, and intense, direct eye contact (though eyes are slightly in shadow from the hat).
• Aesthetic: Vintage fashion, Pin-up, 1950s/1960s style, high-glamour, summer resort wear.
• Lighting: Bright, harsh sunlight creating high contrast and crisp shadows. The light should perfectly illuminate the skin and the vibrant colors of the dress.
• Color Palette: Dominated by vibrant yellow, crisp white, and bold red, accented by deep black.
Specific Outfit & Details:
• Dress: A bright yellow halter-neck sundress with a classic white polka-dot pattern. It has a fitted, sweetheart neckline or bustier-style top that enhances the silhouette.
• Accessories:
• A very large, wide-brimmed sun hat in crisp white (or light straw/fabric) that casts a shadow over the upper face.
• A matching yellow polka-dot scarf tied closely around the neck (like an ascot or choker-style).
• Large, striking black statement earrings (circular, drop, or bead style).
• Bold red lipstick is a key feature, contrasting sharply with the yellow and white.
Technical/Camera Details:
• Shot: Close-up or medium-close-up portrait, focusing on the torso, neckline, face, and hat.
• Depth of Field: Shallow (low f-stop), with the model in sharp focus and the background slightly blurred (bokeh).
• Background: Out-of-focus, suggesting a bright outdoor location, with abstract shapes of boats/yachts (white and red accents visible) in a marina setting. In a brightly lit indoor setting, likely a press conference room, two uniformed police officers flank a man in a plain brown t-shirt. The officers, wearing blue shirts with epaulets and badges, have a firm but neutral grip on the man's shoulders, directing him towards the cameras. The man [image uploaded] with short dark hair, is smiling subtly and maintaining eye contact with the lens.

Stretching across the foreground is a white-draped table, upon which a diverse collection of women's underwear is meticulously displayed. There are dozens of pairs in various colors, patterns, and styles, including solid hues of red, blue, pink, and black, as well as leopard print and other designs. Several microphones with news station logos are placed among the undergarments, pointing towards the man and officers.

Behind the table, a throng of journalists and photographers are actively documenting the event. Many are holding professional video cameras with large lenses and attached lights, while others are using DSLR cameras with flash attachments, and some are capturing footage with their smartphones. The room is illuminated by rectangular fluorescent light panels on the ceiling, casting an even glow. The overall atmosphere suggests a formal public presentation, possibly a police press briefing or an arrest announcement. Create a hyper-realistic 8K close-up body portrait of a male model, using the uploaded photo as the exact facial reference. Maintain 100% accuracy of the facial features — do not alter or modify any aspect of the face. Render the skin texture, lighting, and overall composition with photo-realistic detail, ensuring lifelike color tones and natural depth of field. A man with his original hairstyle, he is standing confidently, hands in his pockets, looking directly at the camera. He is wearing a simple, light beige crew-neck sweater and dark trousers.
He is positioned between two decorated Christmas trees. The tree to his left is adorned with gold and white ornaments and warm lights, with wrapped red and gold gifts visible at its base. The tree to his right is decorated with red and gold ornaments. The background shows a warm, indoor setting, likely a home, with soft lighting, creating a festive and inviting atmosphere. The overall impression is one of relaxed holiday cheer.
