Copyright e AI
The relationship between copyright and generative AI is one of the hottest legal fronts, with two distinct issues. The first: were models trained on copyrighted works without a license? Lawsuits from publishers, artists and news outlets against AI labs (starting with the New York Times against OpenAI) are drawing the boundaries, with different outcomes in the US (fair use doctrine) and Europe (a text and data mining exception with an opt-out right).
The second: who owns the output? The prevailing view is that content generated entirely by AI doesn't enjoy copyright protection (there's no human author), while significant human creative input can make it protectable. Platforms still grant commercial usage rights by contract.
Practical rules for companies: check the tool's commercial-use terms, don't ask for imitations of specific artists or outlets, keep track of human contribution on important content, and have sensitive cases reviewed by legal.
