Why is it that most kinds of wire fraud are seriously prosecuted by the courts but they turn a blind eye on copyright fraud?
In practice, laws surrounding copyright and even outright plagiarism mostly serve the party with the most lawyers, and this has been the case for some time.
People who pirate usually can’t afford to bribe officials and politicians.
small time pirates cannot afford that. Meta, OpenAI and similars can afford the lawyers
Bribe? Good sir you mean lobby, sullying these corporation’s, who are people, good names.
/s and I now need a shower.
Yes, thats what I said, bribe.
Simple legislative solution.
Anything generated by AI in full or partially, is not eligible be copy-righted.
and just like patents, prove you didn’t use AI via showing process of creation.
You can’t prove a negative.
Yeah, I would say the way to make this work would be that you have to promise that it doesn’t use AI tools. If there’s evidence, beyond a reasonable doubt, that you did, then you lose all copyright, from the past and future. Everything you’ve made becomes public domain.
The logical conclusion of that would be that nothing created after the introduction of “AI” will ever be copyrightable, which would be an amazingly ironic twist of jurisdiction.
I read that’s the position some courts have already taken, as they should.
Copyright can only be applied to a creative work, and that can only be created by a human being.
I think I need to know where Disney lands in this issue.
Though I guess it remains to be seen if they have the funds to fight the AI VC juggernaut that comprises basically all the growth in the American economy in the last 4 years.
i’m pretty sure this is the primary reason disney divested from AI video generation. they realized they couldn’t successfully lobby the law in to allow AI to own IP rights and be the primary beneficiary of that law.
That’s only half a solution, the artist still gets fucked
i mean the courts have already decided that, but it would be nice for the legislature to agree
As long as fake claims like this don’t get punished, these things would continue.
This is fraud, plain and simple. It baffles me how nobody is calling it what it is, and use funny words like trolling. Trolls don’t actively defraud other people of their rightful income from copyrighted works.
It’s easy to add rules to dmca takedowns, so I wonder why Google wouldn’t implement any safeguards in YouTube.
Because Google’s interest is in making it easier for companies to make money, not individuals.
We need a new thing because “identity” ain’t cutting it in a world of monetized profiles and AI clones.
Yeah this was bound to happen. I hope for some magic reason that they’ll be all shut down but the musician
Headline is click bait. This is a classic scammer copying music to ear the musicians royalties, not an “AI company”.
So this sounds like someone is trying to get a challenge out to make AI generated slop copyrightable.
Strangely, this post doesn’t really have anything to do with AI per-se. The exact same exploit is actively being exploited on YouTube and music streaming services without AI. AI is just a boogeyman feature of the exploit in this case and doesn’t really seemed to have played any real part in it.
