One part I found particularly interesting about this is footnote 27:
> While some prompts may be sufficiently creative to be protected by copyright, that does not mean that material generated from a copyrightable prompt is itself copyrightable.
I wonder if this is meant to imply that no possible prompt can produce copyrightable output. What if the prompt already contains expressive elements that the model faithfully reproduces in its output? (For instance, in the limiting case, "Exactly repeat this poem that I wrote: ...") Or perhaps this is meant only in the strict sense, that a creative prompt does not necessarily produce copyrightable output, if the expressive elements in the output originate from the model instead of the prompt.
- layer8 4y agoThere will be a case-by-case weighing of which artistic aspects were contributed by the human and which by the AI. What they are indeed saying here is that a prompt being copyrightable does not by itself imply that the generated output is copyrightable. I believe this also means that if someone takes your copyrighted prompt and uses it to produce some output, then that output doesn’t a priori infringe on your copyright.
