  • It’s okay, the author of the article didn’t actually read (or understand) the Copyright Office’s recommendations. They are:

    Based on an analysis of copyright law and policy, informed by the many thoughtful comments in response to our NOI, the Office makes the following conclusions and recommendations:

    • Questions of copyrightability and AI can be resolved pursuant to existing law, without the need for legislative change.
    • The use of AI tools to assist rather than stand in for human creativity does not affect the availability of copyright protection for the output.
    • Copyright protects the original expression in a work created by a human author, even if the work also includes AI-generated material.
    • Copyright does not extend to purely AI-generated material, or material where there is insufficient human control over the expressive elements.
    • Whether human contributions to AI-generated outputs are sufficient to constitute authorship must be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.
    • Based on the functioning of current generally available technology, prompts do not alone provide sufficient control.
    • Human authors are entitled to copyright in their works of authorship that are perceptible in AI-generated outputs, as well as the creative selection, coordination, or arrangement of material in the outputs, or creative modifications of the outputs.
    • The case has not been made for additional copyright or sui generis protection for AI- generated content.

    Pretty much everything the article’s author stated is contradicted by the above.
