Kind of confused. Earlier, the EFF wrote an article about AI generated works not being copyrightable in most cases. Now, they're claiming AI generated works are copyrightable? What's going on?
I don't really see anything here arguing that AI generated works are copyrightable. It would probably help if the article actually mentioned what it was in response to, because that's a pretty important thing to just gloss over. But it sounds to me like it's saying that copyright protections don't need to be strengthened even more than they already are, just because companies are afraid that they will make less profits because of ai existing.
You need to understand that the quality of a man, and by extension an organization, is determined by how much they cost to buy.
