But no one is complaining about publishing derived work. The issue is that "the robot brain has full copies of my text and anything it creates 'cannot be transformative'". This doesn't make sense to me because my brain made a copy of your book too, its just really lossy.
I think right now we have definitions for the types of works that only loosely fit human actions mostly because we make poor assumptions of how the human brain works. We often look at intent as a guide which doesn't always work in an AI scenario.
Yeah, that's basically it.
But I think what's getting overlooked in this conversation is that it probably doesn't matter whether it's AI or not. Either new content is derivative or it isn't. That's true whether you wrote it or an AI wrote it.
I agree with that, but do politicians and judges who know absolutely nothing about the subject?
I haf a professor in college who taught about cyber security. He was renowned in his field and was asked by the RIAA to testify about some cases related to file sharing. I lost respect for him when he intentionally refrained from stating that it wasnt possible for anyone outside of the home network yo know what or who was actually downloading stuff. The technology was being ignored and an invalid view was presented for a judge who couldn't ELI5 how the internet worked let along actually networking protocols.
