Copyright Pros Don’t Know What to Do About Authorless AI Paintings , Broadband Breakfast;
"Intellectual property experts on Wednesday puzzled over questions of
originality and attribution at a conference hosted at the Library of
Congress on “Copyright in the Age of Artificial Intelligence.”...
Rob Kasunic, associate register of copyrights at the
U.S. Copyright Office of the Library of Congress, tried to provide
answers to the questions of authorship brought up by [Ahmed] Elgammal [a computer scientist from Rutgers University].
In doing so, he raised more questions: Does Congress have the
constitutional authority to give copyright incentives for AI computer
programs? Should congress do that? Is copyright law even the correct
vehicle for AI output protection?
Precedent provides limited guidance to these questions, he said."
Issues and developments related to IP, AI, and OM, examined in the IP and tech ethics graduate courses I teach at the University of Pittsburgh School of Computing and Information. My Bloomsbury book "Ethics, Information, and Technology", coming in Summer 2025, includes major chapters on IP, AI, OM, and other emerging technologies (IoT, drones, robots, autonomous vehicles, VR/AR).
