There are lots of things that are not simple reproductions that are not fair use.
If I take ten of your copywritten photographs and stack them on top of each other in Photoshop with transparency, the output is not a simple reproduction of your work. If I sold that for commercial purposes you would be upset with me and likely have a copyright case.
That's an obvious example, but my point is there aren't super clean-cut definitions for these things, and it's not settled case law yet which side current AI training and content generation falls under.
- nox101 2y agoThere is tons of human made art in contemporary art museums that is copywritten stuff re-arranged. Most famously might be Andy Warhol's Campbell's Soup cans. You can find plenty more though. Product labels, magazine covers, pasted together as "art" even thought each part is copywritten.
