Federal Judge Advances Key Claims in Artists' Lawsuit Against AI Art Generators

A lawsuit filed by artists against generative artificial intelligence art generators has seen progress, as a federal judge has allowed key claims to move forward. U. S. District Judge William Orrick found that Stable Diffusion, an AI tool created by Stability, may have been built partly on copyrighted works and with the intention to facilitate infringement.

The judge dismissed claims related to breach of contract and unjust enrichment, as well as violations of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. The case will proceed to discovery, where the artists hope to gather information about how AI firms harvested copyrighted material. The lawsuit revolves around the LAION dataset, which allegedly used billions of internet images to train AI systems.
