I'm attending a tech conference (TechXchange). As a novelist by avocation, I'm finding the discussion where it reflects on our copyrights  pretty fascinating.  

Major Takeaway: Do not use AI that have been trained on material (like chatGPT) that /contains copyrighted text or other data that has not been cleared for use/ by the copyright owner. 

There are LLMs that are curated to contain only cleared material. Can't do business if you can be sued, naturally. 

What I am hearing is as regulation catches up, copyright law is pretty clear. Using AI-generated text or content cannot be copyrighted, particularly because of the origin of the data cannot be verified legally. 

If you use something like chatGPT to help you build text—and its influence can be inferred later—/you could lose your copyright/. This includes things like using content in podcastS, images, or video.  

Presenters are reporting that there are companies that are working on programs that can infer (using AI) that something is influenced or contains AI content.

 @6e9427cf can't wait for:

"you detecting copyrighted content by using AI is copyright infringement because the AI was trained on copyrighted material"
lawsuits determining if AI is confabulating detected copyright infringement
