“The company tested OpenAI’s GPT-4, Anthropic’s Claude 2, Meta’s Llama 2 and Mistral AI’s Mixtral, prompting them to generate text from popular books protected by copyright laws in the U.S.

OpenAI’s GPT-4 produced the highest amount of copyrighted content, responding to an average 44% of prompts asking for text from books with the copyrighted text.”

The NYT is correct.

The Verge · The New York Times sues OpenAI and Microsoft for copyright infringementBy Emma Roth

So my rockstar wife now has a Mastodon account: mastodon.social/@dineen

She's a Florida lawyer who's Bar-certified in Appellate Law and Intellectual Property Law (and is the only human being on the planet who has both).

Among other things, she's recently been handling some #scheduleA cases.

She's still cooking up her #introduction post, so go follow her so you see when it drops.

One of the more bizarre and gross little details about copyright:

Most (corpo) authors will NEVER read fan fiction, explicitly maintaining a public stance of doing so.

Why? Because if they confirm they read it and they later use an idea that even coincidentally is similar to yours, you could potentially sue.

Not even entirely their fault, it's just an ass situation.

Strangle the last copyright with the guts of the last patent.

As screenwriters and studios negotiate AI’s role in the entertainment industry, it’s important to be mindful of some core copyright protection principles. With that, welcome to the world of “unclaimable material,” a strange land where material that *could* be protected by copyright *isn't* protected by copyright.
