Reuters reported today that ByteDance and the Motion Picture Association (MPA) have signed an agreement to strengthen copyright protections for AI video and image generation models.
The agreement covers ByteDance's Seedance video generation model and Seedream image generation model, which are currently available through apps including TikTok, CapCut, and Dreamina. ByteDance said the latest versions of Seedance and Seedream include stronger intellectual property safeguards.
ByteDance and the Motion Picture Association said they will continue to improve copyright safeguards as AI continues to evolve.
