The Supreme Court doesn't care if you want to copyright your AI-generated art
- not_the_fda 8mo agoSo is AI generated code not copy-rightable?
- ggm 8mo agoI'm more taken by the strength of "you can't patent AI ideas" than the IPR of artwork. I get that there are far more creatives than patenters, so I am making a somewhat unfortunate choice here, but to me thats much more significant. The inverse proposition however may hold: AI derived proofs may PREVENT a patent because they didn't declare AI can't make prior art. I'd love to know if that does apply.
- treetalker 8mo agoFor those who may have missed prior threads on this, the denial of a petition for certiorari has no precedential effect (other than finalizing the lower court's decision in that particular case, in most instances). The denial does not mean that SCOTUS "doesn't care": the area of the law is relatively new; SCOTUS almost certainly wants to let the various circuits experiment with different approaches; and SCOTUS may take a case once the law matures and a good circuit split has developed. It could also be that this was not the right case ("bad facts make bad law"). Nothing to see here.
