A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

What was fed into the algorithm? A human decided which major copyrighted elements of previously created original work would seed the algorithm. That's how we know it's derivative.
If I take somebody's copyrighted artwork, and apply Photoshop filters that change the color of every single pixel, have I made an expressive creation that does not include copyrightable elements of a previously created original work? The courts have said "no", and I think the burden is on AI proponents to show how they fed copyrighted work into an mechanical algorithm, and produced a new expressive creation free of copyrightable elements.
I think the test for "free of copyrightable elements" is pretty simple - can you look at the new creation and recognize any copyrightable elements in it? The process by which it was created doesn't matter. Maybe I made this post entirely by copy-pasting phrases from other people, who knows (well, I didn't, only because it would be too much work), but it does not infringe either way...
