In the midst of a copyright infringement controversy regarding the 'Ghibli style' AI image craze, singer Lee Ji-hye has joined the trend. As the copyright infringement debate is at its hottest, she has drawn attention by revealing family photos.
On the afternoon of the 3rd, Lee Ji-hye posted on her social media, "I tried not to do Ghibli as much as possible, but the kids are too cute, so here are some family photos. The last photo of Saejelgui," along with several pictures.
The photos Lee Ji-hye revealed were 'Ghibli style' AI images that are currently trending. Since the end of last month, the act of transforming photos into Ghibli style using ChatGPT has been spreading like a trend. Lee Ji-hye converted not only family photos but also images of her two daughters raising their hands while standing still into Ghibli style images. The characters in the photos and images were remarkably similar, attracting attention.
However, there is a critical view regarding the copyright awareness in this current craze, and many feel disappointed given that the copyright infringement controversy is ongoing. Not only Lee Ji-hye but also several celebrities such as Jeon Hyun-moo, Park Seul-gi, Lee Hyun-yi, Nam Bo-ra, Oh Sang-jin, Jang Sung-kyu, Son Dam-bi, Hong Seok-cheon, and Song Ji-eun have followed the trend.
Hayao Miyazaki, the original creator of Ghibli, has shown a negative stance on AI for a long time, stating, "The results produced by AI do not understand the pain of those who work to create. It's utterly disgusting. I will never use such technologies in my work. I consider it an insult to life itself."
