The US copyright system encourages human creativity. So does it make sense to grant a copyright to work created by AI with the click of a button? And, if AI generated artwork is given copyright protection, how would that impact the livelihoods of creative professionals?
In our last episode, we looked at Jason Allen’s AI-generated artwork, "Théatre D’opéra Spatial," and the arguments why it should have some copyright protection. This time, we examine the other side – the most powerful arguments for why AI-generated work should never be eligible for copyright.
Guests:
- Jason M. Allen, founder of Art Incarnate
- Sy Damle, partner in the copyright litigation group at Latham & Watkins
- Karla Ortiz, artist
- Kelly McKernan, artist
- Delanie West, advocacy liaison for the Graphic Artists Guild
- Genel Jumalon, artist
