Generative AI & Intellectual Property Law
summary
Generative AI in games creates two legal questions: who is the human author and is the output original under local law. Practical points: models like Midjourney and Stability AI power assets often developed from human sketches (about 200 prompts to refine images), registries are denying pure-AI filings, and US fair use differs from EU TDM rules. Platforms matter — Unity integrates AI with internal data — and litigation is nascent with ~30 ongoing cases; always check TOS, prefer licensed training data, and treat trade secrets risk seriously.
