In September, <\/span>OpenAI<\/a> launched a way for users to generate a digital likeness of themselves they could use to create personalized deepfake videos<\/a>. This is one of the core features in Sora, OpenAI\u2019s app for sharing AI videos<\/a> inside a TikTok-style feed. The self-deepfaking feature was called \u201ccameo,\u201d and with that standout feature, Sora quickly rose to the top of Apple\u2019s iOS download charts.<\/p>\n

This feature name led to a trademark lawsuit with Cameo<\/a>, the app where fans can pay celebrities to record personalized videos. Now, because of the legal action, OpenAI has temporarily scrubbed the \u201ccameo\u201d branding from its Sora app<\/a>. The app now refers to the feature as \u201ccharacters.\u201d<\/p>\n

Creative originality is not achievable by generative AI<\/a>, which is built on finding patterns in large datasets, and OpenAI seems to be matching this derivative vibe with its naming schemas. In addition to being told to remove \u201ccameo\u201d from Sora, OpenAI was also recently ordered not to call its upcoming hardware device<\/a> \u201cio,\u201d in response to a separate lawsuit from a company named \u201ciyO\u201d<\/a> that\u2019s already building an AI-powered hardware device.<\/p>\n

According to update logs<\/a> on OpenAI\u2019s website, the company removed the name for the Sora feature over a week after US District Judge Eumi K. Lee issued a temporary restraining order. The judge\u2019s order blocked OpenAI from using \u201ccameo\u201d or variations of the word. The next hearing, which may decide whether this ban sticks, is scheduled for December 19.<\/p>\n

Discussions between Cameo and OpenAI have been \u201cpretty nonexistent,\u201d according to Steven Galanis, the CEO of Cameo. \u201cThey clearly knew Cameo existed. They knew we had trademarks on it,\u201d he said in a call with WIRED shortly after the judge issued the temporary restraining order. \u201cThey chose the name anyway.\u201d<\/p>\n

He sees this lawsuit as an \u201cexistential\u201d battle over the word \u201ccameo\u201d and the app\u2019s brand he has built over the past eight years. \u201cWhen people think about the word, now it means something different than authentic personalized connections,\u201d said Galanis. \u201cIt means AI slop.\u201d Galanis claimed OpenAI\u2019s feature name was already hurting Cameo\u2019s visibility in Google search results.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe disagree with the complaint\u2019s assertion that anyone can claim exclusive ownership over the word \u2018cameo,\u2019 and we look forward to continuing to make our case to the court,\u201d said an OpenAI spokesperson in an emailed statement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
