Elon Musk, his car company tesla, and Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. were sued on Monday local time for allegedly using artificial intelligence technology to infringe the image copyright of the movie 'Blade Runner 2049', to promote tesla's siasun robot&automation concept of robot taxis.

Lawsuit filed by Alcon Entertainment, the producer of 'Blade Runner 2049', alleges that tesla and Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. only applied for the temporary use of the movie's footage hours before the Cybercab event, without prior permission from Alcon.

Cybercab is tesla's 'dedicated robot taxi' concept car, with the company aiming to produce it by 2027 with a price below 0.03 million US dollars.

Alcon's civil lawsuit filed with the Los Angeles federal court states that 'Alcon has denied all licenses' and strongly opposes any implication that 'Blade Runner 2049' is connected to tesla, Musk, or any companies owned by Musk.

The lawsuit states that, 'the defendants then used an obviously AI-generated fake image to complete all this,' which constitutes 'massive economic theft.'

During the Cybercab event, when Musk was speaking, 'this forged image' appeared on the second slide of the live broadcast for 11 seconds.

The complaint states, 'In those 11 seconds, Musk awkwardly tried to explain why he showed the Blade Runner 2049 picture to the audience when he should have been introducing his own new product. He really has no credible explanation.'

At the press conference, Musk said, "I like Blade Runner, but I don't know if we want that kind of future."

The lawsuit alleges that the financial impact of this plagiarism is "quite significant," and points out that Alcon is currently negotiating potential collaboration with other auto brands on the upcoming Alcon "Blade Runner 2099" TV series in production.

The complaint also states that the "problematic Musk" is an issue in this case, and Alcon does not want its "Blade Runner" sequel film to be "associated with Musk, Tesla, or any companies related to Musk."

Alcon stated in the lawsuit, "Any cautious brand considering a collaboration with Tesla must take into account Musk's greatly amplified, highly politicized, erratic, and arbitrary behavior, which sometimes turns into hate speech."

"If a company or its executives actually disagree with Musk's extreme political and social views, potential brand collaborations with Tesla become even more problematic."

Alcon is not the only company opposing Tesla's reference to Hollywood elements. Earlier this month, the director of "Machinery Enemy", Alex Proyas, posted a comparison image of his movie and Tesla's robot taxi launch event on social media, saying, "Hey, Elon, can you give me back my design?"
