🧠 Industry Insights

AI-Created Art Isn’t Copyrightable

  • In March, the copyright office affirmed that while most works generated solely by AI aren’t eligible for copyright protection, AI-assisted materials might be an exception.

  • “Human authorship is a bedrock requirement.”

  • An application for a work created with the assistance of AI can support a copyright claim if a human was involved in a significant way.

  • In essence, while purely AI-generated works are currently non-copyrightable, works that involve significant human intervention, selection, or arrangement in collaboration with AI can potentially be protected under copyright law.

🎥 Creator Highlight: How I faked my life Using AI short film

The film critiques social media and how the pressure to portray perfect lives leads people down strange paths like AI-fabrication. Overall it's a thoughtful exploration of how emerging tech like AI image/video generation could impact social media and our sense of self in the digital world.

It takes the idea to an extreme conclusion to highlight potential pitfalls. Kudos, Kyle!

Definition: Multimodal Language Model

Similar to a large language model, a multimodal language model is a type of deep learning model trained on large datasets, but unlike large language models which are only trained on textual data, multimodal language models are trained on both textual and non-textual data. This allows it to generate responses to multiple input modalities, like text, images, audio, and video.
