For the U.S. Copyright Office (USCO), an AI-generated work does not satisfy the “authorship” requirement of the U.S. Copyright Act.
Last week, a U.S. federal court upheld a previous decision made by the U.S. Copyright Office to rightfully deny copyright protection for any submitted generative AI works in the United States.
Since the beginning of 2023, almost a dozen copyright or similarly related lawsuits have been filed against AI platform services that center around whether or not AI-generated works satisfy the “authorship” element. The majority of what we’ve seen to date has been concerns surrounding training data and the relationship between the data sets it analyzes and the outputs it generates.
