I see no reason the same standard cannot be applied to ML generated content. If the evaluation is being performed on the end result, then that is all that matters. The same judges that decide these things for human generated content can continue to do so for ML generated ones. Even the people submitting and responding to the copyright claims will still be human (with briefs generated by ML…). What will be more interesting is when the judges themselves get replaced with an “objective” AI to quantify similarity for copyright purposes. If that ever happens, it’ll trigger an arms race to hit the razors edge without going over.
