US Copyright office asking for comment on "Artificial Intelligence and Copyright"

[J.Quondam]

Anyone interested in the legalities of AI intersection with creative industries should know the US Copyright Office is currently seeking input on the topic until October 18, 2023. Comments are posted publicly, but can be made anonymously, I believe. To submit a formal comment, here is the link:

Artificial Intelligence and Copyright: Notice of inquiry and request for comments at US Copyright Office.


There is a lot of information on that page. The summary reads:

SUMMARY:​

​

The United States Copyright Office is undertaking a study of the copyright law and policy issues raised by artificial intelligence (“AI”) systems. To inform the Office's study and help assess whether legislative or regulatory steps in this area are warranted, the Office seeks comment on these issues, including those involved in the use of copyrighted works to train AI models, the appropriate levels of transparency and disclosure with respect to the use of copyrighted works, and the legal status of AI-generated outputs.​

If you have a personal or business interest in the matter, this is an opportunity to be heard.

Maybe they should start by asking ChatGPT what it thinks of "artificial intelligence + copyright." Seems like it is only fair to ask A.I. what it's opinion on the matter is!

My comment would be : do whatever the EU does.
