Lol… this thumbnail for a livestream on YouTube of the oral argument is killing me 🤣

And so fitting for the discussion.

Oh geez… and the YouTuber is rebroadcasting the CSPAN feed 😬🫣😅

Here’s what I mean re: use of C-SPAN content — c-span.org/about/copyrigh…

…which I think is BS, from a personal perspective…

There are sooo many great clips and resources from an historical perspective, and the limited means of sharing them using their video tool isn’t cool. Image
It should be fully public funded and all content should be public domain…

I’m getting wild, I know. I’ll stop now.

It’s OFFICIAL🚨

@CopyrightOffice will NOT allow registration of AI-generated images as part of larger graphic novel registration

The generative works were not properly disclaimed, therefore the USCO is reissuing a certificate to fix + limit the OG registration.

“We conclude that Ms. Kashtanova is the author of the Work’s text as well as the selection, coordination, and arrangement of the Work’s written and visual elements. That authorship is protected by copyright. […]
“However, as discussed below, the images in the Work that were generated by the Midjourney technology are not the product of human authorship.”

🚨 A new class action was filed against @StabilityAI (#StableDiffusion), @midjourney_ai, & @DeviantArt (#DreamUp) on behalf of artists whose works were used to train AI/ML algorithms. 🔥

Here's a breakdown... 🧵

#copyright #ai #ml #artificialintelligence #DMCA #Midjourney
The named artists bringing the class action included references to haveibeentrained.com as proof that their works were used for the Stable Diffusion and Midjourney tools.

The complaint dives into how each company developed its specific tool & then offered them to the public.
The complaint dives deep into the details of how Stable Diffusion works. It also highlights how Stability paid LAION ("Large-Scale Artificial Intelligence Open Network") to put together LAION-5B, a dataset of 5.85 billion images.

What's going on with this class action lawsuit against both Google & YouTube as well as several creators and toy brands?

More importantly, why should you care?

I got you covered... 🧵

#google #youtube #creatoreconomy #creators #privacy #COPPA #FTC Image

Ryan's World,
CookieSwirlC,
Cartoon Network,
Hasbro,

DreamWorks Animation, and more.
❓Why❓
The use of "targeted advertising, powered by persistent identifiers, that allowed Google and YouTube to collect data and track the online behavior of children without proper parental consent."

I have some thoughts on a bit of what was shared by Alfred David Steiner in this @NYSBA article exploring #copyright and #NFTs #NFTCollections, specifically those like #BAYC.

Buckle up… 🧵

nysba.org/bored-apes-and…
The article gives 4️⃣ “reasons why a ‘CryptoPunk’ may not merit copyright protection”, each of which I will respond to in order…

Let’s go! 😀
1️⃣ “It lacks a minimum of creative authorship”

🚫 no, there is a human authorship element that is merely assisted by computer software. Also, the underlying assets are also protectable as works eligible for copyright protection.

Oh my… @brianlfrye throwing bows and taking us all into a hot debate right now at the @NYSBA web3 event 😂

Broadly claiming “Copyright is irrelevant” 😳 😅
And he keeps throwing 🔥 statements 😂

“You don’t own an NFT, you pwn it”

“It’s all a securities market”
This is fun.. I wish I was attending live

Huge news from @discord about the launch of server subscriptions that will impact #creators for a variety of reasons.

Let’s explore! 🧵

#CreatorEconomy #CreatorEconomyLaw #discord #DiscordServer
👉 When an audience becomes a customer, it can dramatically change the relationship. Creators, and their mod teams, need to ensure they understand how to manage customer relations.
This subscription offering may be different to manage than that of other platform subscriptions or purchases, such as on YT or Twitch, and more akin to Patreon.
