In a nut shell, people are creating film trailers with AI and sharing on YouTube. Film studios are now asking Google for a slice of the profits as it’s their intellectual property.
In a nut shell, people are creating film trailers with AI and sharing on YouTube. Film studios are now asking Google for a slice of the profits as it’s their intellectual property.
People have been doing this without AI for years. AI just means these are just pumped out with more frequency and faster. The YouTube algorithm loves to recommend,
“Official Spider-Man 4: Homeward Bound The Incredible Journey Trailer | Tom Holland, Zendaya | Marvel Cinematic Universe | Official Trailer 2025 Fan Trailer”
See, it isn’t misleading, they clearly stated it was a fan trailer.
If the YouTube algorithm didn’t recommend it, people wouldn’t make it. If they were clearly labeled, the videos wouldn’t get the views. If giving this money to studios kills this style of content I’m all for it. Of course, I’m sure that won’t be misused.
