Movie and television studio Alcon Entertainment filed a lawsuit Monday against Tesla, Elon Musk and Warner Bros. Discovery for allegedly using imagery from the film "Blade Runner 2049" without permission during a live-streamed Cybercab unveiling earlier this month. The complaint, filed in Los Angeles federal court, alleges Alcon had refused a request from Warner Bros. to use images from the firm for Tesla’s Cybercab unveiling, which took place at Warner Bros.
Neither Tesla nor the plaintiff's attorneys responded to FOX Business inquiries about the lawsuit. WHAT IS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ? In a statement, Alcon said the defendants’ "conduct is likely to cause confusion among Alcon’s ‘Blade Runner’ brand partner customers, including those it is partnering with for its upcoming ‘Blade Runner 2099’ series for Amazon Prime." Reuters contributed to this report.
