Study reveals AI-generated content costs celebrities up to ¥4.5 billion

9 Temmuz 2026Japan Times

A recent study reveals that the unauthorized use of celebrities' likenesses in AI-generated content has resulted in losses amounting to ¥4.5 billion. Over a two-month span last year, more than 43,000 images and videos were created using these likenesses without consent.
This trend raises significant concerns regarding copyright infringement and the protection of personal image rights in the age of artificial intelligence.
The proliferation of AI technology has made it easier to create content that mimics real people, leading to a surge in unauthorized representations. This trend poses a challenge not only for celebrities but also for the broader implications of copyright law in the digital age.
The staggering financial losses reported highlight a growing issue at the intersection of technology and intellectual property rights. As AI continues to evolve, the legal frameworks surrounding copyright and likeness rights may need to be re-evaluated to protect individuals from unauthorized exploitation.
