突然之间，今年进口片的热门类型变成了恐怖片。 经过血腥镜头处理，且相对首映推迟三个月上映的《死神来了：血脉诅咒》，在国内预计将有近2亿的票房成绩。去年只有一部《异形：夺命舰》取得闪 耀佳绩，到今年《小鹿斑比：清算》《同甘共苦》《梅根2.0》如下饺子般涌现。 一直被主流评论家视为难登大雅之堂的恐怖片，现在成了"香饽饽"，甚至连奥斯卡都表现出拥抱姿态，在此之前只有《驱魔人》这般现象级经典才能冲破 规则，而去年《某种物质》《诺斯费拉图》《异形：夺命舰》都有了夺奖机会。 影片海报（图源：豆瓣) 进口片的这种变化背后跟好莱坞的供给大增密不可分，如今的好莱坞已经快被恐怖片"淹了"。 原本恐怖片只是小型独立电影公司的"聚宝盆"，因其往往成本低下，而受众牢固，容易出小爆款。但现在好莱坞大厂纷纷跑来分一杯羹，导致北美市场已 经很长一段时间几乎每周都有一部恐怖片上映。市场大盘也受到了恐怖片的带动，根据路透社独家汇编的Comscore数据显示，今年恐怖片占北美票房的 17%，高于2024年的11%和十年前的4%。 影片海报（图源：豆瓣） 这种现象的背后，跟好莱坞整体性颓靡不无关系。大片制片成本高，在影院票房水位下滑时风险更甚，恐怖 ...

（原标题：这家中国AI独角兽被美国好莱坞三巨头集火攻击） 21世纪经济报道记者 章驰 实习生 邓凯 从魔改甄嬛传，到口袋里的好莱坞，是什么让迪士尼、环球影业、华纳兄弟三巨头联合集火攻击同一家 中国公司？ 如果把AI侵权简单认为是生成了相似内容，那你就想简单了。其实对AI公司的侵权指控逻辑主要围绕 大模型的两个环节，分别是输入和输出。 输入环节，就是在没有授权的情况下用素材去训练大模型，但这种情况法律界的争议很大。美国联邦法 院今年裁决，Meta与Anthropic使用书籍训练AI模型的行为就属于"合理使用"。 输出环节就是AI最终生成了相似文字图片视频，比如AI生成的奥特曼，就被广州互联网法院判定为侵 权。 不过这一次MiniMax侵权诉讼的特殊之处在于，这是美国公司首次对中国的AI公司发起的版权诉讼，将 AIGC 与内容产业的矛盾推向了全球舞台。 无论诉讼结果如何，整个行业都绕不开一个问题：在技术与法律、创新与版权的碰撞中，AI公司如何 成长和发展？ 也有人说诉讼的背后难掩地缘政治影响，到底是不是借版权来遏制中国AI的创新？对此，你怎么看？ 这是一场好莱坞和AI公司的战争，海螺AI又摊上事儿了！ 似是而非的 ...
