New markets, new ideas, and new creators are actually what copyright is supposed to promote, not restrict. Using copyright to lock in existing gatekeepers and massive rightsholders’ profits helps neither the public nor individual artists.
I don’t really see anything here arguing that AI generated works are copyrightable. It would probably help if the article actually mentioned what it was in response to, because that’s a pretty important thing to just gloss over. But it sounds to me like it’s saying that copyright protections don’t need to be strengthened even more than they already are, just because companies are afraid that they will make less profits because of ai existing.
