The US Copyright Office is inching closer to creating new rules and regulations around generative AI and how the technology uses the work of authors and other creators.In a notice filed Wednesday, the US Copyright Office said it is opening up a period of public comment, now through October 18, to further "inform" its ongoing study of artificial intelligence tools like Midjourney, OpenAI's ChatGPT, and Google Bard.Authors, visual artists and even source code developers are already suing the likes of OpenAI, Microsoft and Meta because their original work has been used without their consent to train something that may ultimately compete against them.Generative AI tools including ChatGPT, Bard and Meta's Llama 2, were developed using massive amounts of information and data scraped and saved by automated web crawlers, which suck up everything they can online, including millions of works under copyright. The major tech companies behind these generative AI tools use the crawled data to train their models without paying the creators who produced the original content. These the models need high-quality, human-generated content to perform well.https://www.businessinsider.com/us-copyright-office-new-rules-generative-ai-2023-8?r=US&IR=T (ICE LOS ANGELES)
