MIDJOURNEY WANTS HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS TO REVEAL THE DETAILS OF THEIR AI USAGE

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Midjourney is pushing to force Disney, Universal, and Warner Bros. to disclose their own internal AI usage during discovery in the ongoing copyright lawsuits against it. The studios currently only must share generative AI documentation tied to "consumer-facing" content, a limit Midjourney's new filing seeks to remove, arguing it lets studios hide evidence of similar internal AI practices while cherry-picking material against Midjourney. The company also wants studios to disclose all Midjourney prompts and outputs used, not just those tied to allegedly infringing images, while the studios' attorney has dismissed the request as a "fishing expedition."
