Last was an excellent talk by @jtlg on generative AI and copyright at the Allen Institute for AI. Favorite quote: "It's not at all obvious that the incentives to create of the sort that copyright offers are the appropriate system of law to govern this new [technology]. It may be that what replaces copyright due to generative AI is as different from copyright as copyright was from the patronage system that came before it." Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toPhm4zBp00 (6/6) #GenerativeAI #copyright
