Two authors sued OpenAI, accusing the company of violating copyright law. They say OpenAI used their work to train ChatGPT without their consent.

    But the US authorities are quite clear that a work that is purely AI generated can never qualify for copyright protection.

    Which law says this? The government is certainly discussing the problem, but I wasn’t aware of any legislation.

    If there is such a law, it seems to overlook an important point: an algorithm - an AI - is itself an expression of human intelligence. Having a computer carry out an algorithm for summarizing content can be indistinguishable from a person having a pattern they follow for writing summaries.
