[QUOTE="Clint_L, post: 8936106, member: 7035894"] Why not? It seems to me the question is not whether AI is used, but how much and in what capacity. And these are very pertinent questions that are being heavily litigated. For example, let's say I mostly write a campaign guide, but use AI to fill in some of the basic, repetitive stuff. Can I copyright that? Okay, what if I write a campaign guide, and I write quite a bit of it, but for the gazetteer section I just create the place names and a few details (e.g. Stankwater, a small swamp village with an alligator problem) and get the AI to fill in the details. Can I copyright that? With other AI assisted art, the AI is basically doing what I described above - the artists are making the key decisions, but much of what you actually see on screen is being filled in by AI. It seems to me that the question over AI and copyright, in writing or any other art form, is likely to come down to what degree of unique creative expression is required for an artist to claim work as their own. The question won't be about whether the use of AI automatically excludes a written work from copyright, it'll be where the line should be drawn.
