Elon Musk sued for using Blade Runner imagery in Tesla robotaxi event

The production company, which has also financed and produced films such as The Blind Side , filed a lawsuit accusing Musk of copyright infringement, saying it specifically declined to grant permission to use the images. Alcon also alleges Tesla did not reach out for permission until the day of the event, which was held on October 10. Musk, Tesla and Warner Brothers Discovery, which hosted the event in a studio lot, are listed as defendants.

Tesla, Musk and Warner Brothers Discovery did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the suit..
