Deep dives

AI art cannot be copyrighted

A district court judge ruled that AI art cannot be copyrighted in the US. This decision was consistent with earlier rulings that stated human authorship is an essential part of a valid copyright claim. However, the judge acknowledges the changing landscape and the need to address questions about the extent of human input required for copyright protection. The US Copyright Office has affirmed that most works generated by AI cannot be copyrighted, but AI-assisted materials may qualify for protection if arranged in a sufficiently creative way.
