Google sued by Autodesk over AI-powered movie-making software
Google has been sued by Autodesk for allegedly infringing its “Flow” trademark to market competing AI-enabled software used to make movies, TV shows and video games.
In a complaint filed on Friday in San Francisco federal court, Autodesk said it began using Flow in September 2022 for visual effects, production management and other products, and was surprised when Google launched Flow software in May 2025 aimed at the same customers.
