ChatGPT adds real cartoonists' signatures to fake New Yorker cartoons

Original: ChatGPT is adding real cartoonists' signatures to fake New Yorker cartoons

OpenAI's ChatGPT is generating fake New Yorker-style cartoons that carry the signatures of real cartoonists, according to a Nieman Lab report. The images imitate the magazine's distinctive single-panel style while attaching genuine artists' names without their consent, raising fresh concerns about AI systems reproducing identifiable creative work and misleading viewers about authorship.

Why now: The report highlights a new instance of AI image generators misappropriating artists' identities and work, a hotly debated issue.
