Hollywood's "Fair Use" AI Knockout Punch. Coming Soon?
Peter Csathy's synthetic co-hosts discuss Csathy's most recent article that discusses and analyzes where things stand in the current AI copyright infringement / "fair use" battle royale that is playing out between media and big tech companies in the federal courts. Csathy lays out the current state of affairs -- how federal courts have already decided (or soon will decide the "fair use" issue) -- and what that means for the world of generative AI as it meets the Arts.
The discussion also focuses on Csathy's "call to arms" to the big Hollywood companies to take a firm and loud stand against the unlicensed "taking" of copyrighted works for AI training purposes -- and asks why major entertainment companies like Disney are staying silent amidst it all.
Finally, Csathy offers alternatives and solutions that should work for both media and tech -- while accelerating "ethical" AI adoption by reducing litigation friction.
Csathy generated the discussion using Google NotebookLM - and he approves its contents.
