Kinda weird that this is everyone's attitude while the copyright lawyers are saying the opposite. Total liability without any actual ownership.
- romanows 3mo ago"own" in the sense of "be responsible for the consequences". Not in the sense of "be able to grant reproduction rights".
- matheusmoreira 3mo agoThat's how I interpreted it. I just wanted to highlight what I see as a discrepancy. They're putting all the liability on us because it's a tool with no intent of its own while simultaneously saying prompts don't count as creativity because it's not a tool like a photographic camera it's just a casino where you roll the dice. Quite self-contradictory in my opinion.
- IsTom 3mo agoThere's plenty of tools that can cause harm without having to be creative to use them.
- therealpygon 3mo agoThe copyright office’s guidance is that prompts are covered by copyright, it is the output of an LLM that one cannot claim ownership of.
- daveguy 3mo agoGP's phrasing was not precise, but I think most people understood it was liability ownership and not copyright. Ownership with respect to copyright and ownership with respect to legal liability are two completely different concepts.
- _verandaguy 3mo agoThat's correct. What I meant was that if my bot writes defective code for whatever reason, I am responsible for that (though conversely, if I get more done because of the bot, anthropic gets the praise).
