@joshbressers@infosec.exchange @scy@chaos.social Supreme Court has already dismissed such cases. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/02/us-supreme-court-declines-to-hear-dispute-over-copyrights-for-ai-generated-material.html So we are getting a precedent in US law. Yet to be settled in any high court in the EU though.

@Foxboron@chaos.social @scy@chaos.social I suspect this is different. That case someone trying to copyright something the AI spit out, not asking if AI can violate a copyright by copying something almost verbatim Of course I haven't looked to see if the chardet code is mostly a copy, if it's not, then 🤷

@Foxboron@chaos.social @joshbressers@infosec.exchange @scy@chaos.social Supreme court dismissed copyright case against generated material. Nobody discard case for infringement by this generated material. You can't pursue somebody for reusing your AI material, because such material can't be copyrighted), but you can pursue somebody to have generated AI material from your copyrighted (and so not AI) material.
