Guy runs an experiment to see Just how easy is it to wrangle from GPT that which is very clearly someone else’s IP… Results are interesting, it’s not hard turns out. Some guardrails do exist for very recognizable characters, but that has not prevented LLMs from returning copyrighted IP on image prompts. Or from stealing studio-specific styles, characters and designs for memes - which has led to ‘Ghiblifying’ everything. #StudioGhibli #LLM #LLMs #Image #copyright #IP #AI #ChatGPT #ImagePrompts #AIImage #AIImages #legal

Writer Beware · Generative AI and Copyrightability: Report From the US Copyright Office - Writer BewareIn 2023, the US Copyright Office launched an initiative to examine the legal and policy implications for copyright of generative AI (GAI). Incorporating comments from the public, the resulting report will be issued in installments, each addressing a different topic.

But it's okay to steal somebody else's work to get to this point?

"Copyright does not extend to purely AI-generated material, or material where there is insufficient human control over the expressive elements.”

Why Italy’s #Piracy Shield risks moving from tiresome digital farce to serious national tragedy – Walled Culture

#Blocklists are drawn up by #copyright companies, without any review, or the possibility of any objections, and those blocks must be enforced within 30 minutes. Needless to say, such a ham-fisted and biased approach to copyright infringement is already producing some horrendous blunders

⚠️ Congress is reviving site-blocking laws—and EFF says it’s as reckless as ever.

Proposals like the Foreign Anti-Digital Piracy Act (FADPA) would empower courts to order ISPs and DNS providers to block entire websites—without due process.

Why it matters:
・🛑 Site-blocking doesn’t just target piracy—it silences speech
・💥 It can unintentionally take down thousands of innocent sites
・🕵️ Evading blocks is trivial—using VPNs, alternate DNS, etc.
・⚖️ Many cases would be handled ex parte, with no one to defend the accused

EFF calls this an internet kill switch in disguise, and it’s a dangerous precedent for free expression and open web access in the U.S.

The entertainment industry is thriving without these laws. So why hand them censorship power?

Electronic Frontier Foundation · Site-Blocking Legislation Is Back. It’s Still a Terrible Idea.More than a decade ago, Congress tried to pass SOPA and PIPA—two sweeping bills that would have allowed the government and copyright holders to quickly shut down entire websites based on allegations of piracy. The backlash was immediate and massive. Internet users, free speech advocates, and tech...

tl;dr: ChatGPT ignores copyright:

while all other graphic AIs refused to do my prompt because of "this is copyrighted work" the new ChatGPT graphic tool had no problem doing it and never cared about any copyright.
I used the unpaid version of chatgpt.

I asked to use a logo from a huge Rock band and exchange some words and some parts of the logo with new one.

great for users, but really bad for copyright!

Meta ( allegedly ) tried to hire 3D artists to justify in court that 3D art is apparently so easy and quick to make, that it is uncopyrightable, so they could not ask for permission from 3D artists for training their AI.
