@preibischs I would think the copyright would be owned by the creator of the AI, not the users writing the prompts.
@LouisIngenthron wouldn’t that somehow be equivalent to parents having ownership of what their kids create?
@preibischs No, because their kids aren't property like an algorithm is.
@LouisIngenthron interesting point. I think the algorithm, yes, but key (or at least a major aspect) is training data, which was not owned by the algorithm creator but was publicly available data, each with its own license.
Assuming this to be a purely technical process, then the algorithm owner should not have the right to all the results of the data.
If it were a creative process, that would be different, at least that’s how we define intellectual property for humans.
Tough decisions ahead…
@preibischs Nah. All art is inspired by other art. Nothing is truly original. This is no different. So long as it's not directly copying, it's fine.
