Suddenly prohibited from using my home photos in Copilot images
As a fan of old B-Movies, I've been creating fictitious B-Movie posters with Copilot. I've been using the faces of myself and wife from home photos for the faces of the "stars" on these posters. Suddenly, copilot says my home photo are copyrighted and can't be used. From Copilot - "The image generation was blocked due to copyright concerns, likely because the uploaded photo contains recognizable faces. I can’t generate an image using those likenesses." It can't even use the photos to create images that are similar to our faces. WTF?
Home photoThe type of poster it used to allow.
I own the home photo, so clearly, I have the rights to it. The file even has the date, camera, settings, etc... This is beyond frustrating! If there is a question of ownership or copyright, Microsoft should have some sort of release form I can post to Copilot when I want to use a home photo. I've not has this problem with any other AI Image Creation. However, Copilot had been creating the best artwork, and I would like to continue to use it. How can this be rectified?
