Why This Award-Winning Piece of AI Art Can’t Be Copyrighted::Matthew Allen’s AI art won first prize at the Colorado State Fair. But the US government has ruled it can’t be copyrighted because it’s too much “machine” and not enough “human.”
Not at all, I’ve laid out reasons for why:
Your suppositions are incorrect, sorry to be the messenger, but my working understanding of my career definitely does outweight your “I think” in regard to what my peers do for a living.
AI is not as viable as people want to believe it is (yet, at least) which happen to be the very same reasons behind the lack of copyright viability and why commercial teams are not using it. Because anyone working in the industry who has experienced these tools or put out any actual product is already laughing at how obvious it is. The courts are right, and the discussion is about how AI works and why it does not. Not “should it tho?”
You on the other hand, opened with an attempt to shut down my working experience with suppositions because I contradicted you, belittlement and attempts to claim intellectual superiority (by hilariously being wrong on both counts) then when called out, you tried to swing everything to your interpretation of how someone must feel if they’re telling you you’re wrong and dumb for thinking that was an “intellectual exploration” of the topic at hand.
I knew I was talking to a fool, but damn. This is impressive.
There is no bias to have, AI as it exists is not a viable tool for commercial use, it rightfully does not meet the requirements to be copyrighted. Your apparent interest in denying that truth seems to be the root of this projection.
My livelihood is not at risk. At worst I’ll be tasked with laying out what my team will need to populate our own in-house AI in order for them to utilize it for low priority bulk assets. The chances it would be used for anything of importance are very low because it’s just another route to a goal we can already achieve easily.
So at worst, my job is even more secure and all I have to do is spend a week getting paid for adding yet another tool to my set. None of my teams livelihoods are at risk either because we all understand the parts AI and a prompt engineer will not know could or should be described. If they did, they’d understand that writing and editing prompts out is slower than just doing the work directly.
You have envisioned 10 trillion possible futures and in every one of them, you are absolutely correct and have nothing to fear. You are wise indeed.
I just exist in observable reality, try it some time.
