I'd like to #askFedi #patreon & #nebula users:
How do creators get away with sharing copyrighted material on those platforms? When I watch YouTube videos of reactions they often mention that the uncut version appears on one of those platforms.
Is it:
ā¢ those platforms do not implement the same copyright matching efforts as YouTube?
ā¢ posts there fly under the radar, less likely to be noticed by copyright holders?
I always enjoy reading how Cory Doctorow (@pluralistic ) explains how complicated laws affect ordinary peopleās lives. His deep dive on AI and copyright is highly recommended. One statement made me think:
āThis is one of the rare instances in which a bad case made good law.ā
What about trolling the system with bad cases to make good law? Maybe such resources are better spent this way than explaining the obvious again and again in an exhausting uphill battleā¦
with the recent supreme court ruling on works created by llms being unable to be copyrighted...
#Copyright is for humans.
I ain't a lawyer. But that's an obvious problem for #vibecoding and #agenticai works.
An odd way to come at it for some, but there it is. From #SCOTUS.

AI-generated art canāt be copyrighted after Supreme Court declines to review the rule
The US Supreme Court has declined to hear a case over whether AI-generated art can be copyrighted.Emma Roth (The Verge)
Very interesting read, this article explaining why AI works cannot get a copyright.
With several examples of interesting and sometimes funny rulings in the past.
One quote:
This is wonderful news for creative workers. It means that our bosses must pay humans to do work if they want to be granted copyright on the things they want to sell.
Hey! Good news everyone! The #SupremeCourt, by declining to overrule the #Copyright Office, has declared that #AI art cannot be copyrighted.
It's bigger than just Thaler's case though. (links below) What this means is that NO AI created work can be copyrighted. Not code, not verbiage, not art, not anything.
Only human created works are eligible for copyright, so sayeth the High Court.
Cory (@pluralistic) does a fantastic job of explaining the details and rounding up links. As he always does. Where he finds the hours in the day, I will never know. ;)

Archive link to #ArtNet because something on the page was blowing up my browser, but they have more details on the case itself, and the "art" in question which just saved real artists: archive.md/bsyrQ

If you understand the technology even a little bit, you will see that it is textbook for derived works. You can even sometimes prompt AIs to spit out the original work once they have copied it into their internal database.
