London AI firm says Getty copyright case poses ‘overt threat' to industry
Getty's case against Stability AI for copyright and trademark infringement relating to its vast photography archives reached the high court in London on Monday. Stability allows users to generate images using text prompts, and its directors include James Cameron, the Oscar-winning film director of Avatar and Titanic. But Getty called the people who were training the AI system 'a bunch of tech geeks' and claimed they were indifferent to the problems their innovation might create. Stability countered by alleging that Getty was using 'fanciful' legal routes and spending approximately £10m to fight a technology it feared was 'an existential threat' to its business. They added: 'The problem is when AI companies such as Stability want to use those works without payment.' In submissions to the court on Monday Getty claimed Stability had trained its image generation model on databases that contained child sexual abuse material. Stability is fighting the overall Getty claim and its lawyer said the allegations relating to child sexual abuse material were 'repugnant'. A spokesperson for Stability AI said it was committed to preventing misuse of its technology, 'particularly in the creation and dissemination of harmful content, including CSAM [child sexual abuse material]'. It said it had robust safeguards 'to enhance our safety standards to protect against bad actors'. Sign up to TechScape A weekly dive in to how technology is shaping our lives after newsletter promotion The case comes amid a wider campaign from artists, writers and musicians, including Elton John and Dua Lipa, to protect their copyright from alleged theft by generative AI companies, which then use it to allow their customers to create new pictures, music or text. The UK parliament is locked in a similar dispute after the government proposed that copyright holders would have to opt out of their material being used to train algorithms and produce AI-generated content, otherwise it would be free to use by tech companies. The trial, which is scheduled to run for several weeks, will focus in part on the use of images by celebrated photographers, including photos of the former Liverpool football coach Jürgen Klopp taken by the award-winning British sports photographer Andrew Livesey; a picture of the Chicago Cubs baseball team by Gregory Shamus, an American sports photographer; a photo of the actor and musician Donald Glover by Alberto Rodriguez; and photos of the actor Eric Dane and film director Christopher Nolan by Andreas Rentz. Seventy-eight thousand pages of evidence have been disclosed in the case and AI experts are being called to give evidence from the University of California, Berkeley and the University of Freiberg in Germany.

Apps, devices and screen time: What are your rules at home?
The government says it is looking into introducing tougher online safety measures that could limit the amount of time children can spend on to the BBC the government's top tech minister Peter Kyle said he was looking at the "addictive nature" of some apps, social media and smartphones while speaking on the BBC's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg programme. Some of the ideas being looked at include a two-hour limit on the use of individual apps and a 10pm curfew according to some reports. So we wanted to know what rules you have with your parents or guardians. How long are you allowed to be on your device for? Is there a bedtime cut-off? Maybe you have different rules for different apps? What about social media or gaming? Have your say in the comments below and why not take part in our vote about ideas like these too? Mr Kyle said he had been looking carefully at what the government needed to do next to "nail down harder" on safety for children online. It follows lots of discussions over the last few years about rules for children's social media use and the amount of screen time children have every day. Whether it's scrolling on social media apps, watching videos online, or gaming on phones, PCs and consoles, there are concerns young people are spending too much time looking at screens. Worries about the type of content children may be viewing have also been raised, with social media platforms like Instagram creating accounts specifically for teens which places restrictions on what young users can view and who they can interact with however studies have also suggested that the amount of time young people spend online doesn't have a big effect on how happy they are and time spent online cna have benefits, letting children to interact with friends and family, access new and interesting information and to have fun.
