ByteDance has suspended the global launch of its next-generation video generation model, Seedance 2.0, due to copyright disputes with several Hollywood film and television companies and streaming platforms. This model supports multimodal inputs including text, images, audio, and video, significantly reducing content creation costs. However, the model quickly became embroiled in copyright disputes, with American film and television companies such as Disney threatening legal action.
