The bigger question is did the thousands of drawings of gears used to train the model in the first place and their creators have any rights to their derivative works.
Given the AI's output using the trained weights of its models were in part deduced using their works as training examples, one could argue that creators of the example pictures should have some portion of rights on any output from the AI Model... maybe...
- Cerium 4y agoYou could use that argument to instead support that any idea created by the AI is not patentable, since it is derived mechanically from prior art.
- shon 4y agoBy that same logic though, isn’t society and technology moving a bit past the idea of prior art? Regardless of who or what generated the patent, because, Internet?
- pitaj 4y agoDoesn't that also apply to humans? We learn things and use them for future creative endeavors without even realizing.
- ramoz 4y agoYes, commentor above my create a fancy new car tire, but did they invent the tire?
- Tagbert 4y agoYes, that is why the myth of invention as a brilliant and isolated act of creation is harmful. We create new things by by recombining what we have experienced. Patents ignore the derivative nature of invention while weaponizing being first to file for an idea.
