Can A Monkey License Its Copyrights To A News Agency?
- pavel_lishin 15y ago> But from a letter-of-the-law view of things, Slater almost certainly does not hold the copyrights on those image We currently do not view non-human primates as human, so what's the difference between a monkey taking a picture, and me building a machine that automatically takes a photo? Who holds the copyright on the result?
- stdbrouw 15y agoYou've built and programmed the machine. You haven't built the monkey. So maybe nobody owns the copyright. I'm wondering if there'd be a difference, copyright-wise, between training a monkey to click the button and having a monkey click a button of its own accord. Heh.
