“Human authorship is a bedrock requirement of copyright.”

AI-generated art cannot be copyrighted, rules a US Federal Judge::United States District Court Judge Beryl A. Howell found that AI-generated artwork can’t be copyrighted, putting to rest a lawsuit against the US Copyright Office over its refusal to copyright an AI-generated image.

    Copyright laws are written vaguely so they can be applied to all human expression even those that haven’t been invented yet.

    Obviously there are boarder cases where things are not clear cut. That’s true for anything. But when courts make those decisions, they are going to do so using legal frameworks that already exist. The courts are not going to invent new standards to determine whether AI usage is copyrightable or not.

      I never suggested they were going to make up new standards based on nothing. All my arguments are related things to existing situations.
