Seems very reasonable. You can copyright the human produced work, but cannot copyright the output of mathematical algorithms.

- unusualmonkey 4y agoSo you think CGI should not be copyrightable?
- freejazz 4y agoYou can copyright CGI, the office distinguishes one from the other, just like you can copyright a painting you made in photoshop.
- unusualmonkey 4y agoWhich is my point.
- freejazz 4y agoHow so?
- unusualmonkey 4y agoThe comment I responded to stated: > but cannot copyright the output of mathematical algorithms. I was pointing out that CGI can be described that way - so taking the argument to its logical conclusion we would have to remove copyright from cgi.
- freejazz 4y agoThat's just glossing over the issue - the difference is in how the tools are used, not just that they employ mathematical algorithms. I guess that's your point? Not sure why people post this way, it's impossible for me to tell what point you are making, I have to make all sorts of assumptions about what you are writing and why. So, my bad.
- desro 4y agoHow does that square with the algorithms used to render the 3D models humans construct and rig? I think the "rendering" analogy is quite apt once you're past the point of initial generation and off to painting, editing, and roundtripping. And it might not even need to be taken that far... could an argument be made that this technology is simply a rendering engine for text?
