Is nintendo replacing their lawyers with ai soon too?

Flood the net with photos and make their AI work overtime costing them lots

Flood it with AI copies of official Mario content. Train the copyright software to associate the context of the official art to get the official art taken down.

Every time I think shitendo can’t get any worse, they prove me wrong. I hate that company so much. They are like a rich brat kid with a toy he is telling everyone not to touch. Fuck off already

Why does the title specify that the tool is taking down “AI-generated” pictures if the article focuses on how it’s taking down fan art indiscriminately?

Because anything AI-related gets more clicks.

Isn’t this the same broken AI that has been striking youtube videos about Minecraft clients? Why is every company suddenly using this?

Edit: Yes it is. I really don’t know what to say anymore. Imagine applying youtube’s broken copyright system to the entire internet, but even worse.

Because they can. There are no laws stopping them.

There are provisions in the DMCA for filing false claims.

It’s easy to file a DCMA claim.

It’s harder to challenge it, let alone go after those faking it.

Simple. They won’t have to spend as much money. Of course them saving money won’t translate to lower Nintendo Switch prices, because they’l actually be making more money by keeping prices the same.

and as long that mainstream consumers aren’t boycotting Nintendo on record profits from these changes related to ai, then Nintendo and other companies will keep the prices the same, aside from raising them in the future.

Just let the man have a pint! He’s certainly earned it.

It was only a matter of time, especially for Nintendo.

I thought AI generated pictures were automatically public domain and unable to be copyrighted?

Blaster_M@lemmy.world on 24 Sep 2024 18:12 next collapse

Do you have the time and money to fite that in court against Nintendo?

NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io on 24 Sep 2024 19:04 next collapse

You've got that the other way around. You can't copyright AI generated pictures, but pictures created by AI can still be taken down as violations of copyright law.

wischi@programming.dev on 24 Sep 2024 19:05 collapse

I don’t think that’s how it works. If it exactly looks like something protected by laws like copyright or whatever your country uses, I highly doubt that any court would say that it’s fine just because it was created by AI.

nfms@lemmy.ml on 24 Sep 2024 18:33 next collapse

Energy wasted to create an AI image to have more energy wasted to have an AI remove it. I’d say this is a win for AI

Grimy@lemmy.world on 24 Sep 2024 19:30 next collapse

It’s more of a win for Nintendo really.

nfms@lemmy.ml on 25 Sep 2024 14:13 collapse

I forgot the “/s” at the end 😀.
But on that point, Nintendo’s actions are making it more difficult for me to play on my switch.

AI actually stands for Artificial Incredible harm being caused to the planet

I’ll stop using ai when Pearson stops using ai to generate broken homework assignments. Sometimes the only way to get whatever incorrect answer the ai autograder is looking for is to fish it out from the model.

Shadywack@lemmy.world on 24 Sep 2024 20:00 next collapse

I just want to see Nintendo go after all the Rule34 stuff. It might be the one thing that could exhaust their resources.

Quazatron@lemmy.world on 24 Sep 2024 21:53 next collapse

Two can play that game. I bet it is possible to create an AI tool that generates and posts Mario pictures faster than they can take them down. Why you’d want to do that I don’t know.

Spite. That’s why.

Why you want to waste Nintendos lawyers time?

Because it’s a noble goal. Nintendo are massive shit cunts to everyone else.

Nintendo is trying to protect their number one Mario drawer.

The Mario detection tool seems to be catching fan art in the crossfire, too.

That’s the actual headline.
