Hollywood shaken by Brad Pitt-Tom Cruise fight video made with Chinese AI
The Motion Picture Association accuses ByteDance's Seedance 2.0 of massive unauthorized use of U.S. copyrighted works, threatening millions of American jobs, CEO Charles Rivkin said.
- On Tuesday, Oscar-nominated Irish filmmaker shared a 15-second Seedance 2.0 clip showing Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt fighting on a Los Angeles overpass, which surpassed 3 million views.
- On Thursday, ByteDance unveiled Seedance 2.0 as a tool designed for professional film production, and observers say it lowers barriers by enabling independent creators to realize cinematic ideas without big budgets.
- Robinson said the clip came from a minimal prompt, noting `This was a 2 line prompt in seedance 2`, and Seedance 2.0 can pull likenesses, choreography, and signature expressions.
- The Motion Picture Association said Seedance 2.0 engaged in massive unauthorized use of U.S. copyrighted works and urged ByteDance to cease infringing activity, while SAG-AFTRA condemned the unauthorized use of members' voices and likenesses, and TikTok suspended image uploads to the tool.
- The Motion Picture Association is pressing ByteDance for licensing and safeguards as Seedance's creative partner programme opens this week, industry leaders warn it could threaten creators' jobs.
