Copyright and Artificial Intelligence (Part 2: Copyrightability)
A Report of the Register of Copyrights
January 2025Here are the main takeaways:
- Al-generated content alone cannot be copyrighted - there must be meaningful human creative input
- Simply writing prompts is usually not enough to claim copyright
- Using Al as a tool as part of a larger process does not prevent copyright protection
- You can copyright the human-created parts of a work that uses some Al elements
- No new laws are needed right now to handle Al copyright issues
- I always modify AI outputs prior to production but I still feel dirty when I do itsausages
- So if you use Photoshops generative fill you're fuckedYakuZoku
- ^ its actually the opposite. The report says the human-created portions are still copyrightable, just not the bit you genfilled. Essentially, it's a derivative.monNom
- They talked about an AI comic where it was copyrightable because the author wrote the script, then used AI imagery, but controlled the placement and captioning.monNom
- So prompted image: no copyright.
Prompted image in a composition or ensemble: the composition or ensemble is copyrightablemonNom - Not a lawyer, do your own research. No warranties express of implied. Not valid in the province of Quebec.monNom
- that's writing.********
- It’s a worthwhile read. The gist is that copyright exists to protect human output. Copyright still applies to the portion of the work a human creates.monNom
