I'm fascinated by AI-generated art. At some point the courts will have to determine what constitutes art that can be protected by copyright law. My understanding is that at the moment, here in the US, AI-generated art is not protected. Another consideration is that AI is in its infancy and no one is certain how it will evolve. However, one thing is certain: it's here to stay and I suspect it will have a profound impact on our everyday lives.
If you haven't been following, the courts are becoming inundated with cases big and small. Artists are mostly unhappy with the rulings thus far, but the logic seems...consistent at least. Lots to figure out. And of course Lady Justice will be tardy to the party as usual. As for copyright, you are correct: not strictly made via AI-generators is currently protectable. Though there are a few cases already about using it as part of the process...like collage. There are lots of gray areas that will have to be figured out. For now, I'm just watching and trying to find common sense ways to use it ethically and responsibly. Cheers
