Hey, I think this is a good point.
The genuine question from me is how is this currently handled with humans? How closely can someone emulate a copyrighted work before they start being in danger of violating copyright?
Maybe we apply the same standards and the regulations then come down on the side of output, and those who choose to commercialize it, being liable if they’re too close to reproducing copyrighted works.
Then of course that brings up the fact that the prompter may not be aware, so how could they be liable? Can we really expect everyone using these AIs to be familiar enough with the sum total of the human creative corpus to be able to identify copyright infringements?
Would a lack of intent to emulate Mickey Mouse be a good defense against unknowingly recreating him as your corporate logo? Probably not.
Yeah, it just seems like a giant mess that is only cleanly resolved by either banning training on copyrighted works without consent or else eventually eroding the entire concept of copyright. Are there other options?
