Abstract

This paper, from the Congressional Research Service, summarizes the many interactions between generative AI systems and copyright law.  This Legal Sidebar brief explores questions that courts and the U.S. Copyright Office have begun to confront regarding whether the outputs of generative AI programs are entitled to copyright protection as well as how training and using these programs might infringe copyrights in other works.
