In other words, it's not that *he* as the human operating the "AI" is trying to claim copyright in his own name, it's that he's trying to set a precedent where the "AI" can hold copyright in *its own* name.
He's trying to pretend that his glorified pile of statistics is sentient, and get it legally recognized as such. 🤡

Exactly. Most of the comments in this thread are accusing him of trying to take credit for the work of a machine that's just imitating other work. It's the FuckAI echo chamber and people who didn't actually read the article. In this case, it's more like he's claiming to have created a genuinely creative being that deserves rights previously reserved for humans (like copyrights and patents). It's a completely different (and IMO, much weirder) story than people are assuming.
